Antique Furniture |

 Each week we highlight a new and interesting
piece of antique Chinese furniture!
Dongbei Cabinet
This antique medium sized Dongbei cabinet
will instantly lighten up your dining room or kitchen.
With beautiful grains of orange wood and its front painted
fiercely orange and green, make this cabinet very eye-catching.
This long, narrow two door three drawer brightly colored
cabinet offers enough space for storing table clothes,
napkins or even dishes. Space on the top is ideal for
some flower arrangements and bar shelf down on the bottom
for storing boxes of fruit and vegetables.
