About the Item

You are viewing a gorgeous Chinese camphor chest on stand That's what really attracted us to this piece as it's unusual to see these come with a stand like this Such a great decorative piece, the intricately carved chest looks great on the elegant stand with curved legs Again, hopefully the photos illustrate the intricacy to the carving, so detailed and profuse In the 18th and 19th century, chests made from naturally fragrant camphor wood were primarily used to transport tea, porcelain, and silks from China to Europe Prior to their use in sea trade, camphor chests were used in Chinese households as storage units for objects such as blankets and linens. A Chinese camphor chest is a wooden storage chest traditionally made from the fragrant wood of the camphor tree, prized for its natural insect-repellent properties These chests are often intricately carved, featuring detailed scenes or patterns, and were historically used for storing linens, clothing, and valuables Offered in great condition ready for home use right away Will ship to anywhere in the world - please get in touch for a shipping quote Items can be viewed in our showroom by appointment - please get in touch
