This beautiful early 19th-century display cabinet from China's Henan province features complex honeycomb lattice panels and doors carved with elaborate scrollwork. Unlike fretwork made by carving or perforating a solid panel, this lattice would have been created by linking short pieces of wood with mortise and tenon joinery. The cabinet's lower doors bear the characters for "double happiness," a blessing for marital happiness often found on furniture gifted to newly wed couples. Originally used to display antiques and precious objects, this spectacular cabinet is fantastic as a bookcase or cupboard.
