The hinged lid opens to reveal a propped mirror framed in ornate carved scrollwork—perfect for vanity use—while the lower cabinet features double doors with metal latch that open to interior storage compartments.

Accented with original metal hardware, including hinges, clasp, and decorative pulls, this piece shows wonderful vintage patina: wear to the red finish, minor losses, and age-related scuffs that enhance its authentic character (no damage; fully functional).

A delightful blend of form and function, ideal as a jewelry organizer, trinket box, or decorative accent on a dresser, nightstand, or console. Brings exotic Asian flair to Chinoiserie, Hollywood Regency, bohemian, or eclectic interiors. See less
