drawers surrounding a central column of four handy storage compartments. The multi-cubby design is ideal for organizing dining room linens, cutlery, accessories and other precious possessions, or use it to keep your office supplies in fine array. The
cabinet's face, top surface, and side panels are adorned with soft, hand-painted faux-watercolor depictions of plum blossoms, bamboo leaves, grape
vines and other exotic flora set against a shimmering gold undercoat. The golden background is created through color-plating using the jin gui pai or golden turtle armor method, a traditional technique dating back to the Tang Dynasty (618-907 A.D.). Tong fen, or bronze powder, is added to the paint to provide extra gleam and the surface is then lacquered in place, creating a lustrous finish. Bright brass latches and decorative
hinges add to the Oriental mystique of this fabulous piece. With its rich gleam and stately design, this
cabinet is sure to be a prized addition to any decor. Measures 30 inches high x 30 inches wide x 13 inches long.
