Vintage Korean Elm Bandaji Tansu Scholars Chest Wedding Cabinet Armoire 51"
About the Item
20th Century Korean Tansu Nong Bandaji tallboy wedding chests / cabinet / armoire made of elmwood featuring a two tone wood grain and brass hardware.
Korean Bandaji chest or trunk featuring elm frame with brass hardware. The Korean name bandaji (literally meaning "half closing") derives from the hinged door in the front of this chest. This type of chest was one of the most essential, and most commonly found, pieces of furniture in a Korean household. Clothes, documents and valuables would be stored inside while folded blankets would be placed on top during the day (which explains why it is called a "blanket chest" in English).
