Grand Chinese Two-Door Cabinet, c. 1800
About the Item
This austere 19th century Chinese cabinet from China's Shanxi province was constructed with grand proportions. The expressive grain of northern elmwood (yumu) patterns the doors with subtle texture and adds an understated elegance to a cabinet of such an impressive scale. The doors were designed with extended dowels at the top and bottom that ingeniously fit into the frame, freeing the cabinet of the need for distracting surface-mounted hinges. We love this monumental cabinet as an effortless way to anchor a room.

- 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
