Hello! This is Kanaoka from the Osaka store.
In this blog, we will explore the appeal of cupboards!
So first, let's answer the question, "What is a cupboard?"
Among storage furniture, a cupboard is a piece of furniture that is suitable for storing tableware.
It also serves as a shelf to display tableware.
By the way, a sideboard is one that is suitable for storing food!
Therefore, many of them have doors that hide the front.
Cupboards come in a variety of designs, with characteristics that vary depending on the country and region.
For example:
Japanese cupboards have many drawers and sliding doors,
Many of the designs are specialized for functionality such as storage,
In Europe, they have open shelves, glass doors, and internal lighting.
There are many designs for shelves that display tableware. 
Many of the vintage cupboards sold at SHARK ATTACK are Scandinavian furniture.
It was created by Danish-based designers in the 1950s to 1970s.
It features a simple, minimalist and modern design,
There are many designs that feel universal and familiar even to us in Japan, where functionality is the defining feature.
The woods used in Scandinavian vintage furniture are mainly oak, teak, and walnut.
There are many high-quality woods available that are hard to come by these days.
Because cupboards are large pieces of furniture, you can enjoy vintage ones that make abundant use of natural wood, which changes beautifully over time.
Another charm of vintage cupboards is that they feature designs that make the most of the beautiful wood grain.
The linear design follows the flow of the wood grain, and the smoothly finished corners, handles, and legs highlight the attention to detail. 
Tips for incorporating a vintage cupboard into your room:
Large furniture can change the impression of a room with its presence, so even if you don't use the same wood,
I think it's fine to just think of it as matching light and dark.
If possible, please also pay attention to the materials of your fixtures and floors.
The cupboard with open shelves can also be used as storage in the living room.
