About the Item

A Chinese cabinet from the late Qing Dynasty, crafted in the early 20th century, retaining its original dark brown/black lacquer and hand-painted decoration. The rectangular form is defined by clean, architectural lines, softened by the timeworn beauty of its surface. The façade features faint landscape scenes rendered in red and gold tones, their subtle presence offering a quiet narrative layered beneath a glossy patina. Below, stylized floral motifs and geometric meander borders enrich the apron and lower panels. Fitted with a brass lock plate and ring handles, the two doors open to reveal dark wood shelves and a hidden lower storage compartment tucked behind a removable interior panel. Two exterior drawers with matching ring pulls provide additional functionality. The sides and back are finished in recessed panels, consistent with traditional construction. Wear, lacquer losses, and surface marks are consistent with age and contribute to the cabinet’s authenticity. This piece has been lightly stabilized and cleaned in-house but retains its antique character. Ideal for use in a living room, hallway, or bedroom, this Qing Dynasty cabinet offers both storage and understated decorative presence.
