So how did you like the Sendai Tansu? Not only are they beautiful but they have so much history! If you want to pick up that small tansu I was holding, be sure to check the links in the description!
First. 🤪
Dude these subtitles are killing me, good job!
Fantastic piece of woodworking, and the lacquering is exquisite
Can't show price and have to ask? That just sounds like.. some sort of scam… "ask for discount for something you do not ask price for" could literally add on price.
I've been a craftsman myself since my father picked up his first tools in my Hands when I was around 10 years old. I work with everything, iron, wood, even plastic, I build simple cabinets and entire lighting systems and I can repair almost anything on a car if It's not exactly a Tesla, but I'll probably never master the skill that such masters have! And it's a shame! In Germany we still have a few manufacturers and masters who produce such things, but not for long anymore. Young people are almost only interested in their TikTok and Insta, they almost don't want to work properly anymore, many don't even work at all anymore in my Country thanks to the lush social system and for many, hardening iron or shaping wood is simply too much, they don't even understand it, our education System is so bad and because of all the these very noble and unfortunately often not very well paid professions are eliminated in few years! I wonder what our countries will look like in 50 years when something like this no longer exists.
(and if any German writes here that we have a shortage of people in the country, they should be careful, we don't have anything like that in the country, we have never had more people in the country in our intire History and never more unemployed people able to work in the last 35-40 years! Even if our Politics wants to make us know this!)
I have to ask, does Chris Broad do the subtitles for these videos??
I love the intro makes me feel like watching a old anime movie
“I can see my face in it!”
“Unfortunately , yes.”
Stop 🤣🤣🤣
I wish I am rich so can buy these incredible pieces. lol
Damn you only look like 100 years old in this part 10:10
I'm not asking the price. I know is something I could never afford😢
Thank you for this amazing video! These works of art are incredible and I am thankful there are still talented craftsmen willing to put in the talent, time, and effort necessary to make such beautiful pieces! No wonder they are passed down from generation to generation, what a treasure to inherit!
They are all so beautiful!
Idk why but as a westerner foreigner it feels a little weird that 洋服, western style clothes, was translated as "normal clothes"
Ryotaro's vibes when he speaks English: 😈
Ryotaro's vibes when he speaks Japanese: 😇
I really love the subtitles!
Whoaa that's neat. Didn't know these things existed
Great craftmanship
anyone inquired about price yet?
Bringing us the content Abroad in Japan cannot conceive of!
It was my understanding that tansu helped the household to pack up and move to town for the mandatory six months or so the shogun ordered to keep samurai families off balance so they wouldn't form alliances against him? Basically the classy version of plastic storage tubs or press board and fabric box furniture. 🤣 Once you arrived, they were stacked up and latched together to create furniture and stair cases. Very smart and gorgeous.
I have noticed many Tansu have a "stepped" shape. Most of them in this shape are of antique age. Were Tansu like those used as the primary stairs in some homes or rooms??
Very very nice.
I can see my face in it.
Unfortunately yes …
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
They’re absolutely stunning, videos like this make me want to become an apprentice, not yours though Ryotaro apologies 😉
Oh wow! This really makes me want to get my vintage Mahjong looked at now :0
did you buy one?
Love it ❤
Ryotaro is so proud of Sendai, he promotes its food and culture, great work
I’m trying to inquire about the box. Can you help me.
I'm absolutely blown away by how beautiful these pieces are. True artistry ❤
Wow, amazing woodwork! I love how shiny it is, and I especially liked that small one with the dragon that was shown at the end. It’s so beautiful! Thanks for the video!
