Chinese Four Door Herdsman Coffer, circa 1880

About the Item

Created in the style of Mongolian storage coffers, this late 19th-century herdsman's chest has a minimalist design with rustic appeal. The square corner cabinet is decorated with a simple carved apron and a low floor stretcher and features two sets of double-doors that open to a large interior fitted with one continuous shelf. The coffer has been refinished to reveal the natural texture and pattern of the wood grain and darkened to a light brown finish. Ideal as a sideboard or credenza, this four-door cabinet enriches modern interiors with wabi-sabi texture and warm brown color.
