About this seller
ProfessionalProduct description
This antique Chinese auxiliary cabinet in painted wood with one door, one drawer and brass ring pulls, is a domestic storage piece from northern China around 1900. Originates from northern China, from the late Qing period, where red paint was the standard finish for everyday pieces.
Small auxiliary cabinets with a door and drawer were common functional pieces in Chinese homes during the Qing period. They served as bedside tables or for storing personal items in small spaces.
The carcass is of solid wood with mortise-and-tenon joinery. The upper door carries a brass ring pull; the lower drawer, also with a brass ring. The original red lacquer is partially preserved, especially on the door and sides.
The patina combines the residual red of the lacquer with the dark tone of aged wood. Wear on the edges and contact surfaces is consistent with over a century of domestic use.
This cabinet suits japandi, wabi-sabi or minimalist interiors. It works as a side table, small bedroom cabinet or decorative shelf element.
