DaHong Four Door Coffer

Made in Mongolia at the turn of the 20th century, this four-door coffer is surprisingly modern in its minimalist form. Traditionally, Mongolian coffers were constructed to open from the top. Our traditionally trained craftspeople reconfigured the facing panels to open for modern convenience. These planks of northern elm were masterfully joined without screws or nails. Foregoing decoration, this cabinet is a all about history, texture and scale.
