Description:
Elegant Chinese closet from the early 1900s, made of solid wood and lacquered in a deep cinnabar red, typical of the Oriental tradition. The surface shows a warm and lived-in patina, witness of time, which enriches the piece with authentic charm.
The cabinet features essential lines, with molded frames framing the two front doors. The central wrought-iron hardware, finely crafted and complete with the typical pin locking system, is a decorative and functional detail, perfectly in keeping with the style of the period.
At the base, a closed compartment with a fixed panel gives balance to the composition and structural solidity.
