About this seller
ProfessionalProduct description
This antique Chinese low cabinet in elm wood is a low sideboard with drawers and doors and an open central niche, of long horizontal development and shallow depth. It originates from China, from the late Qing dynasty, where elm was worked with mortise-and-tenon joinery.
Long, low cabinets served in the Chinese home as support and storage along a wall, with closed storage and an open recess on view. Their low profile ordered the room without crowding it.
The body is solid elm, with a row of small drawers, doors fitted with ring pulls at each end, and an open central niche. The joints are mortise-and-tenon and the hardware is iron.
The patina is warm and even, a honey tone with the elm grain on view and soft wear at edges and pulls. The surface keeps its character with no restoration to mask it.
For its low line and 155 cm length, it works today beneath a television, as a hallway console or as a living-room storage piece. It fits wabi-sabi, japandi and Asian-feeling interiors, where it brings order and a horizontal presence.
