Outlined by a simple, blue-green frame, a delicate painted panel of peony blossoms adorns the front doors of this early 20th century chest from Mongolia. Emblems of spring time and feminine beauty, the peonies are joined by a graceful pheasant, a regal motif in Chinese art that further's the chest's blessings of beauty and good fortune. Originally opening from the top, the cabinet has been reconfigured with doors outfitted with traditional hinges and brass teardrop pulls. The chest's muted turquoise finish has aged beautifully, adding rich character and color to the home.
