Vintage Chinese Tall Black Lacquered Elmwood Chest with Six Drawers
Located in Yonkers, NY
A tall vintage Chinese black lacquered elm wood chest from the late 20th century with six drawers and wooden pulls.

Six drawers (two small ones over four larger ones) with wooden pulls, make up that façade.

The sides are made of recessed panels while the back is sans black lacquer. The ensemble is raised on a simple rail base. Thanks to its great combination of contemporary design and traditional technique, this large Chinese vintage dark lacquered elmwood chest...
