Pair of Ornate Lacquered Cabinets with Cabriole Legs, c. 1850

About the Item

These richly carved and lacquered cabinets were made over 150 year ago in China’s Shanxi Province and remain in remarkable condition. The cabinet fronts are well-proportioned and carved with imaginative detail, including a scalloped trim, swirling s-form cabriole legs, and relief panels of the flowers of the four seasons. The thick finish of dark brown lacquer has aged beautifully from years of use with a fantastic crackled texture. Expertly crafted, these cabinets have a strong spirit that speaks to the sophistication of the time they were created and the storied lives they've gone on to live.

  • Bubbles Cabinet with Brass Legs, Amazing Design for Your Interior
    By Andrii Rudenko
    Located in Port Orchard, WA
    The “Bubbles collection” is an example of an emotional design that appeals to our inner child. The collection is inspired by excitement from childhood, provoked by the first reaction to rainbow-colored soap bubbles and pink bubble gums. The cabinet consists of a weightless array of bubbles of different dimensions filling the space between the two functional cubes with relief facades. The luxurious composition is completed with elegant brass legs. The LED lighting emphasizes the volume and texture of the bubbles. It accentuates the perception of the lightweight shapes of the bubbles and adds intimacy to the interior in the nighttime. For all people who see this cabinet, the question arises of how exactly these balls are connected. It is this mass of bubbles that create a feeling of weightlessness, lightness, flight, elusiveness and play. That is why the dimensions of the balls are different and change with each new product.
