Chinese Wood Cabinet: 2 Bi-Fold Doors with Ornate Lattice Carving
About this piece
Carved front, lattice panels, and curly feet that really commit to the theme.
This cabinet is from China, and dates to the 19th century. It is elm wood. Tibetans were traditionally semi-nomadic and owned few personal furnishings, so most Tibetan furniture stood in monasteries, and some of it was carted over the Himalayas to India as monasteries were destroyed. Large cabinet in warm brown wood with four doors covered in carved panels, lattice, and floral relief. A deep carved apron sits below, and the front legs end in scroll-form feet. Tone is dark brown with golden edges. It is 69 inches long, 26.5 deep and 67 high.
