This square corner chest dates to the early 20th century and was crafted by artisans in Tianjin, a bustling port city in northern China. Originally used for general household storage, likely in a woman's quarters, the cabinet has two shallow drawers and a large lower compartment. The chest has a balanced design, with minimal decoration besides its stepped apron and original brass hardware. A sophisticated storage solution, we love this small cabinet as an elegant side table or nightstand.

What They're Saying

Elizabeth Krueger | Elizabeth Krueger Design

“PAGODA RED was extremely supportive in helping to pull accessory options together for the Lake Forest Showhouse. After providing them with details and our vision on how we were looking to finish our space, Laurene helped curate options that made it easy for us to edit and finalize. It's also no surprise that the unique pieces we used in our showhouse space were some of the first to sell.”
