About this seller
ProfessionalProduct description
Antique low sideboard in pine wood, traditional Chinese furniture originating from Gansu and dated circa 1930. Originates from Gansu, in northwestern China, from the early 20th century, where local pine was worked using mortise-and-tenon joinery without nails, with low and horizontal format.
In the houses of the Hexi corridor, narrow low sideboards held a discreet role in the main room or the antechamber. Their reduced height matched the custom of living close to the floor and the presence of the kang. They served both as a support surface and as horizontal storage furniture.
Built in solid pine using traditional mortise-and-tenon joinery, without nails. The case articulates an open central niche and two small lateral doors with circular iron latch-style pulls. The sides are resolved as solid lateral plates, without exposed legs. The top is a continuous horizontal plane.
The patina retains the warm tone of aged pine, with visible grain and matte sheen. The surface shows marks, stains and traces of prolonged domestic use, integrated into the wood. The structure remains solid.
It fits naturally in minimalist, wabi-sabi or contemporary rustic interiors. It works as a low TV sideboard, a bench-sideboard in an entrance or a horizontal console facing a sofa. Its length lets it anchor a full wall.
