00:10.310 --> 00:14.800
...and this is one of the old…
this, they used as a mirror.

00:14.800 --> 00:18.170
-A mirror, on the back?
-This is the back, this is the mirror.

00:18.170 --> 00:21.940
And this says ‘kotobuki.’
When you get married, they give it to you.

00:21.940 --> 00:24.180
This is about 600 years old.

00:24.180 --> 00:25.600
(Bob Barker)
Six hundred years old.

00:25.600 --> 00:26.810
(Jane Nishimoto)
Yes, it was given to me.

00:26.810 --> 00:29.360
It is all dull,
but they used the back as a mirror.

00:29.360 --> 00:31.070
(Bob Barker)
Yes, the mirror is dull now,

00:31.070 --> 00:34.260
but at one time it shined up
to be a mirror.

00:35.450 --> 00:38.000
Interesting. Six hundred years old.

00:38.000 --> 00:39.470
Yes, that's right.

00:40.450 --> 00:43.110
This is something different.

00:44.260 --> 00:47.370
Let's see if we can get that out of there.

00:48.840 --> 00:52.360
This is [what] they call
the ‘inrō,’ medicine case.

00:52.360 --> 00:54.440
They put medicine in this.

00:54.440 --> 00:56.620
(Bob Barker)
Oh, medicine case.

00:56.620 --> 00:58.080
(Jane Nishimoto)
Then you take it off.

00:58.080 --> 00:59.780
(Bob Barker)
Oh, it just hangs there, I see.

00:59.780 --> 01:03.120
(Jane Nishimoto)
It’s all separate, different compartments.

01:03.120 --> 01:05.120
All different pills.

01:05.120 --> 01:08.390
(Bob Barker)
That's very good, that's very nice.

01:08.390 --> 01:11.370
Well, thank you very much, Jane.

01:11.370 --> 01:18.860
And now, Sarah Yang has a Korean trunk,
and this is a real trunk, isn't it Sarah?

01:18.860 --> 01:20.920
Well, it definitely is the real McCoy.

01:20.920 --> 01:23.080
(Bob Barker)
And this has a very interesting lock,

01:23.080 --> 01:23.640
I noticed.

01:23.640 --> 01:28.530
Here we go, we unlock it this way. See?

01:28.530 --> 01:30.150
(Bob Barker)
And look at that lock.

01:30.150 --> 01:31.650
And we open it this way.

01:31.650 --> 01:33.400
Most people try to lift this up,

01:33.400 --> 01:35.000
-but what happens---
(Bob Barker) But it is not a lift.

01:35.000 --> 01:37.960
It isn’t, because right on top here,
you're supposed to actually put

01:37.960 --> 01:41.992
your colorful blankets a mile high, maybe.

01:41.992 --> 01:46.820
Well anyhow, there we go, so it opens
this way and then there's inside.

01:46.820 --> 01:49.690
There's supposed
to be a shelf right here also.

01:49.690 --> 01:57.000
Here we go. This is a replica of a chest.
We never called this a trunk.

01:57.000 --> 01:58.850
-It's supposed to be a chest.
-Oh, you don't call it a trunk.

01:58.850 --> 01:59.850
It's a chest.

01:59.850 --> 02:02.490
(Sarah Yang)
Definitely, it's supposed to be a chest.

02:02.490 --> 02:06.180
And this is sort of like a small version
of a large chest here.

02:06.180 --> 02:08.680
There's a beautiful story
that will take me a whole hour

02:08.680 --> 02:12.370
to tell you about that,
but it is a truly beautiful story.
