Item PV11 One of a Pair of Square Corner Red Lacquer Cabinets SOLD

The doors swing open on a wood pin hinge. The interior is fitted with three shelves, the upper two with framed openings sometimes seen on display cabinets and shrines. A single drawer sits between the top and middle shelf. Since there is no coffer or hidden cavity at the bottom of the cabinet, all of the interior space is easily accessible. This smaller scale cabinet is not as common as the larger and medium size cabinets.
Lacquer over mixed softwoods. Original hardware; Northern China, early 19th century; Size: 32" x 17" x 59" high
