Antique Japanese Style Hand-Painted Trunk with Scenic Decor, Early 20th Century
Located in Yonkers, NY
This early 20th-century Chinese trunk from the late Qing Dynasty captivates with its intricate hand-painted decor and rich lacquered finish. Showcasing Japanese-inspired artistry, the front panel features a scenic tableau of figures amidst a lush garden landscape, framed by ornate geometric borders and botanical flourishes. The vibrant details, including blooming flowers and delicate patterns, stand out against the deep black lacquer, a hallmark of Chinese craftsmanship from this period. Iron lateral handles and a central locking mechanism lend a utilitarian touch to this otherwise opulent piece, while the warm, natural interior wood provides an elegant contrast.
This antique trunk offers both beauty and function, making it a versatile addition to your home. Place it at the foot of a bed to store linens and blankets, or use it as a living room coffee table, where it can house throws and books while sparking conversations about its storied past. The flat top also makes it a stunning display surface for curated decor, such as ceramics or floral arrangements.
With its timeless design and meticulous detailing, this hand-painted trunk embodies the harmonious blend of Chinese tradition and Japanese influence, making it an exceptional statement piece for any interior. Whether used for storage or as an eye-catching focal point, this Qing Dynasty chest...

1930's Ralph Cahoon Decorated Pine Blanket Chest with Family & Museum Provenance
Located in Nantucket, MA
Ralph Cahoon Decorated Pine Two Drawer Blanket Chest with Family and Museum Provenance, mid 1930s, a late 18th or early 19th Century New England pine blanket chest with hinged rectangular lid above case, over two drawers with wooden knob pulls, raised on bracket feet, hand painted by famous Cape Cod artist Ralph Cahoon in the manner of Swedish folk art "Dalmalning." The decoration features colorful stylized figures, buildings and flowers in yellow reserves on a blue ground. The chest is inscribed "Alice and John" and was in fact a wedding present from Ralph to his sister Alice Cahoon Atwood.
This chest is an early example of Ralph Cahoon's interest in the folk painting tradition from central Sweden, and appears to have preceded the stylized Pennsylvania Dutch Americana folk art he painted for his wife's family business. The piece remains in very good condition - structurally very sound, and the paint strong and bright, with a small amount of scuffs and scrape exposing the underlying primer.
The chest became the property of Cape Cod antiques...

Red Lacquer Wedding Chest with Gilt Foo Dogs and Calligraphy Motifs
Located in Yonkers, NY
Vibrant and richly detailed, this small Chinese red lacquered blanket chest was designed as a traditional wedding gift and carries with it layers of symbolic meaning and decorative appeal. The rectangular form is finished in a bold cinnabar lacquer, its surface hand-painted in gilt with auspicious motifs that celebrate union, longevity, and protection.
The lid is centered with a stylized medallion framed by bats and scrolling foliage—classic emblems of happiness and good fortune. A traditional iron clasp secures the top, which opens to reveal a yellow fabric-lined interior, the color itself associated with prosperity and imperial favor. On the chest’s façade, gilt guardian lions—foo dogs—flank a ribbon-tied ball, representing the safeguarding of domestic harmony. Above them, a series of gilt-painted calligraphic symbols and circular medallions reference the phoenix, the dragon, and the number nine...
