Tall Wood Cabinet with Chinoiserie Lacquer Panels and Carved Foliage Details

About the Item

A tall Chinese cabinet with carved chinoiserie panels and richly patinated wood. Composed of three distinct tiers, this substantial storage piece features a vertical stack of doors—two at the base, four central, and two above—each adorned with hand-painted black lacquer insets depicting figures, landscapes, and still life scenes in fine golden detail. These oval panels are framed by intricate foliate carvings that bring dimension and craftsmanship to the otherwise clean-lined form. The natural wood shows a warm honey tone, subtly contrasted by the darker interior, which reveals a series of compartments and hidden drawers, ideal for organizing both display and personal items. Behind the upper and middle doors are open shelves punctuated by carved drawer fronts, some with oval detailing that echoes the motifs on the exterior. The lower compartment offers additional enclosed storage. Raised on four short legs, the cabinet features a shaped apron and gently scrolled front feet, grounding the tall form while adding a touch of softness. The piece is as functional as it is decorative—perfectly suited for use in a living room, dining space, or even as a striking wardrobe or linen press in a bedroom. With its layered structure, lacquered panels, and thoughtful carving, this cabinet balances narrative artistry with storage efficiency—offering a visual centerpiece that brings both elegance and character into the home.
