About the Item

A modern day rendition of iconic Tansu storage with hand forged iron pulls and traditional wooden drawer glides. Maria Yee is a California contemporary furniture design studio established in 1988 with a focus on wellness, material, and craft. Maria, the studio's eponymous founder, began her design journey in the early 1980s in Beijing, where she studied classical Chinese joinery with a master craftsman who restored furniture for the Forbidden City. Over the course of three decades, she would redefine and reengineer the joinery techniques, operate her own factories, and nurture her own design studio. All elements matter at Maria Yee – from responsibly managing forests, fostering new growth to ecologically produced luxurious leathers to meticulously hand forged metal pulls. The brand works hard to sustainably source quality materials and to apply insistently honed techniques to breathe new life into classical craftsmanship.
