Made around 1850 at the end of the Qing dynasty, a period defined by its more restrained style, this two-door chest emulates the more expressive decoration of the Song dynasty. Made of solid elmwood, the chest is adorned with high-relief carvings, flaring spandrels and ornately carved feet. Low chests like this would have been filled with the daily needs of a 19th century Chinese home so that they would be close at hand at any moment.

“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.”
