Antique Furniture |

 Each week we highlight a new and interesting
piece of antique Chinese furniture!
Cabinets
Medium
sized, short Wooden Tibetan Alter Cabinet - brightly painted;
scalloped edges and often with 3 drawers - Although the sides
of the cabinet were left without paint, the skillful maker made
up for that by making a magnificent playground of colors and
motifs on the front and top side. This Tibetan cabinet with
its fiercely orange floral motifs on dark blue background emits
such a cheeriness and optimism. Various colors and patterns
are available
