Vintage Japanese Pair Ranma Transom Pine Bamboo Plum Sugi Wood 72"
Japanese ranma, also known as transom or latticework panels, are intricately designed architectural elements commonly found in traditional Japanese buildings, particularly in temples, shrines, and traditional homes. They serve both functional and aesthetic purposes, often separating rooms while allowing airflow and light to pass through.
The design of ranma typically involves geometric patterns, intricate carvings, or delicate lattice work crafted from various materials such as wood, bamboo, or metal. These panels are meticulously constructed with precise joinery techniques, including mortise and tenon joints or intricate interlocking methods, ensuring stability and durability.
These pieces make great wall hangings above a headboard, doorway or centerpiece on a long wall.
