Chinese Two-Door Black Cabinet, c. 1850
About the Item
The imposing doors of this 19th century cabinet are accented with a trio of lozenge-shaped moldings that enliven the tall, rectilinear silhouette with horizontal lines. Invigorating the cabinet with a sense of rhythm and geometric tension, this tripartite motif is repeated in the cabinet’s triple dagger lock and a trio of interior shelves. Made of northern elmwood, the cabinet was precisely constructed without nails or glue and painstakingly layered with coats of lacquer to create its glossy, inky black exterior.

- Chinese Painted Book Cabinet, c. 1850Located in Chicago, ILThis lacquered display cabinet from Shanxi province was crafted in the mid-19th century using traditional mortise-and-tenon joinery methods. The enclosed lower half was used for general storage and the open upper shelf was used to display precious objects such as vases, curios, or piles of books. The exterior is darkened by a black lacquer finish and hand-painted with charming decorative motifs, including bronze censers, flower vases, scrolls, and scholars' objects. Original brass hardware secures the doors, now richly aged with a smooth patina and subtle oxidation. Unusual for its smaller scale, we love this painted cabinet in a children's bedroom or playroom as an unexpected bookcase or toy chest...Category
