About the Item

A Chinese Qing Dynasty period carved altar coffer from the 19th century, with two drawers and geometric motifs. Created in China during the Qing Dynasty, this altar coffer features a rectangular top with central board, sitting above two dovetailed drawers fitted with brass hardware on floral backplates. The lower compartment, only accessible through the upper drawers, demonstrates that this coffer was likely a money chest. The façade attracts our attention with its beautifully carved geometric and rosette motifs flanked with scrolling spandrels. With its elegant lines and great attention to details, this 19th century Chinese Qing Dynasty coffer will bring a fascinating dimension to any room, a bedroom, living room or perhaps even in a dining room.

Fine Antique Carved Cabinet Chest of Drawers Chinese Altar Temple Commode 18th C

Located in London, GB

An exceptional, stunning and extremely rare Chinese carved chest of drawers in wonderful antique condition. Most likely made in Northern China in the late-18th/early-19th Century, this superbly decorative and versatile eight-drawer cabinet will add knockout wow-factor as well as gorgeous colouring, superb quality and bygone Oriental splendour to any interior. A great size for a versatile piece, whether it's used as a hallway console cabinet, a decorative living room storage piece, a dining buffet or a bedroom chest of drawers, this exceptional and historically significant commode will impress in any setting. It's strong Mongolian and Qing Dynasty influences point to this stunning piece being made in Shanxi Province in Northern China. Traditionally crafted from reassuringly heavy, solid and wonderfully hued Elm & Cypress woods, displaying beautiful nutty-golden hues and wonderfully aged patination, this knockout chest of drawers has extremely rare and showstopping raised-relief carvings to the eight drawers. This staggering chest of drawers would have originally had the dual-purpose uses of household/temple storage as well as its top being used as an altar for daily worship rituals. It would have been painted and there are traces of vibrant red paint still visible to the carved fronts of the drawers, with crimson lacquer still on display to the sides. It features a fabulously hefty, mottled-lacquered top with inlaid centre above panelled sides and back. Supported by substantial legs, it has decorative lower and side aprons and eight outstanding, chunky and ornately carved drawers, each carving with its own significance, and aged brass handles with petal mounts. It's very rare for an antique Chinese chest...
