Description
Shaanxi, circa 1860
This exquisitely carved coffer would once have been used to store important documents or valuables. It originates from Shaanxi province in central China, where this style, with ornate carving and studded drawers, was common. It is made from elm wood, with a thick top surface extending over the drawers and beautifully carved spandrels in a flowing, floral pattern.
