This 19th century chest tapers gently from bottom to top, a refined detail for something intended exclusively for utility. Originally, this cabinet would have been used in a Northern Chinese home to store everything from clothing to incense. The doors pivot easily on external carved wooden hinges. The brass hardware is thoughtfully scaled and positioned, adding to the overall well balanced proportions. The surfaces have developed wonderful character over the past one hundred years of use.

What They're Saying

Andrea Goldman | Andrea Goldman Design

“Over the years, I’ve incorporated many pieces from PAGODA RED into my designs. Not only can they balance new furnishings (and often new construction) by feeling more established, but the pieces emanate a sense of rich history, often leaving you wondering where they were in a previous life. These beautiful pieces carefully hand-selected by the team at PAGODA RED, coupled with their unbelievable customer service, make them a must-have for any home.”
