Chinese Lacquered Quince Blossoms and Birds Wood Cabinet with Brass Hardware
Item Details
This vintage nightstand is finished in a deep black lacquer and features intricate hand-painted polychrome decorations throughout. The top surface displays a charming narrative scene of two children riding atop a water buffalo beneath a willow tree, while the dual cabinet doors are adorned with vibrant avian figures perched on flowering prunus branches. Designed with a single upper drawer and a spacious lower cupboard, the piece is accented by traditional brass hardware, including a decorative drawer pull and central door medallions. Delicate gilt wave-patterned borders frame the front panels, standing on short, bracket-style feet. This functional side cabinet serves as a quintessential example of mid-20th-century Chinese export furniture, blending traditional Eastern motifs with Western furniture forms.
