This 19th century altar coffer features clean lines in the ming manner. It would have originally been used as storage next to a kang platform in a woman's sleeping quarters. Our carpenters, skilled in traditional methods, elongated the legs to make it more functional for today. The negative space framed by the hoof feet and slim legs encourage the eye up to the body of the piece. These traditional design aesthetics bring simplicity and lightness to any environment.

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.”
