This is a 19th century antique Chinese trunk in red lacquer, with faded gilt decorations as a testament to its age and rustic origin. The trunk features a refined narrow and low-slung rectangular form and shaped apron carved to resemble a dragon's tail.

The cabinet's structure, which is consistent with traditional, handcrafted Chinese furniture, confirms its authenticity: four easily removable doors supported by wooden hinges; and tenon and mortise joinery requiring no glue or mechanical joining device. The hardware is original and intact.

This solid piece, which has been well-maintained in its beautifully-aged, original red lacquer finish, would make a stunning statement in most decorative themes.
