Antique Furniture |

 Each week we highlight a new and interesting
piece of antique Chinese furniture!
Wooden
Chest
This large long rectangular wooden chest, typically
of Mongolian furniture is painted colorfully in dark red, yellow
and green colors. This item would need to be placed either on
place where there is a lot of light, like on the top of the
cabinet, where one can notice all the colors and details of
its magnificent paintings or as a stand for lamps or big candles.
It can be used as a small coffee table as well but only in very
bright not over-furnished rooms
