CHAOHU Antique Oriental Cabinet c.1920
Description
The CHAOHU Chinese antique cabinet from Shandong Province, c.1920, is a beautifully aged piece with a distressed turquoise lacquer finish. Over time, layers of lacquer have worn away to reveal the natural wood grain, with subtle golden-yellow tones and even hints of red on the top. The high-shine lacquer adds depth and richness, making this a striking and characterful addition to any interior.
With its versatile size, the CHAOHU cabinet works perfectly in a bedroom, hallway, or living space, offering both storage and style. The double doors open to a removable shelf inside, allowing for easy organisation. It can also be repurposed as a unique vanity unit by fitting a sink on top, blending antique charm with modern functionality.
The turquoise finish adds vibrancy and warmth, pairing beautifully with neutral tones like white, grey, and beige for a fresh, balanced look. It also contrasts elegantly with deep blues, rich greens, and warm golds, making it a versatile statement piece in both contemporary and traditional settings. As a one-of-a-kind antique, the CHAOHU cabinet brings history, craftsmanship, and timeless elegance into any home.
