Chinese Fine Ironwood Cabinet, c. 1850

About the Item

This very fine 19th century cabinet from Northern China is made of ironwood. Iron wood, known in Mandarin as Tieli and prized by collectors, comes from the tallest Chinese hardwood tree and is very durable with a coarse texture and distinctive open grain. This substantial cabinet projects quiet harmony and balanced tension among its austere construction, rich timber, and thoughtfully placed handmade white brass hardware.
