This impressive square corner chest, typical of the Tianjin region, was expertly fashioned from camphor, a wood known for its attractive grain patterns. Intensely fragrant when first cut, camphor retains its crisp aroma over time, making it a natural choice for wardrobes and chests intended to store fine fabrics. The original hand-wrought brass hardware of this Qing-dynasty chest complements its clean lines like the best understated jewelry.
