Tsuitate, Traditional Japanese Interior Room Divider
Item description - YO23010218
Tsuitate, Traditional Japanese Interior Room Divider - This elegant Japanese wooden standing room divider, also known as Tsuitate (衝立), is finely crafted and richly adorned with a hand-carved landscape scene. The central panel features a traditional mountainous setting with a pagoda, flowing water, and stylized trees, all rendered in deep relief that showcases the skill of the artisan and the natural beauty of the wood grain. The backside features the Kanji character (和) meaning peace, harmony, and the country of Japan itself.
Mounted on a sturdy freestanding base, this single-panel screen was traditionally used in Japanese interiors as a room divider, windbreak, or decorative screen near entrances and seating areas. Unlike folding Byōbu screens, the Tsuitate is designed as a solid, self-supporting piece, making it both practical and sculptural.
The warm patina and detailed carving give this piece a strong sense of presence while maintaining a refined, understated elegance. It functions beautifully as an accent in a Japanese-inspired interior, tea room, or as a statement piece in a contemporary space.
