This beautiful coffer is emblematic of Qing dynasty furniture design: the polished wood, concealed joinery, clean lines, and original brass hardware all have a timeless beauty. Long ago this provincial coffer might have served as the family’s altar, where they paid respects to their ancestors. It would also serve as storage—the six drawers and doors concealing precious silks and embroidery.

“I am particularly fond of PAGODA RED as we have known the family for so long. Betsy is a professional in every way and her intelligent taste comes from a long line of family knowledge in the arts. She and her team are the very best to work with and we find treasures with every visit!”
