About the Item
This petite altar coffer keeps with the style of Ming-dynasty furniture with clean lines and minimal ornamentation. Crafted of reclaimed wood with a black finish, the narrow table stands on thin legs ending in subtle hoof feet, focusing the eye upwards to its squared frame. The altar features four shallow drawers and a central compartment with two doors, each secured by a round brass pull. Designed to resemble the low chests used atop a kang platform bed, this timeless coffer fits effortlessly into modern interiors as an entryway console or bedroom vanity.
