Beautiful Figured Keyaki Kura Door | Japanese Elm Summer Storehouse Door

Kura (storehouse) summer door with beautiful ironwork.  The couple on the lock plate are Jo and Uba. They are symbolic of a long and happy marriage. One has a rake to rake in the good while the other has a broom to sweep out the bad. Kura doors were made in pairs for summer and winter. The summer doors need to allow for ventilation so condensation is not a problem in the kura which is generally several degrees cooler because of the thick walls.
