EXP Handmade Asian Furniture - 37" Silver & Black Lacquer Chinese Dresser / Cabinet With Peony Motif

Infuse any room with Oriental spice when you decorate with this elegant cabinet handcrafted from smooth aspen wood and finished with glimmering lacquer. This intoxicating creation shines with gorgeous, hand-painted natural scenes depicted on the drawers, top surface and side panels. Blossoming peonies and flowering orchids are rendered in traditional faux-watercolor style on a glistening metallic background. The silvery 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 C.E.). "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. The border of the frame is ornamented with intricate golden patterning, giving this cabinet a luxurious Imperial flavor. The five pull-out drawers and additional compartment below provide ample storage space for keeping your favorite possessions well-organized and in easy reach. This cabinet can double as an end-table, night stand or keepsake display, and makes a fabulous foyer centerpiece. Unique, functional and made to last, this lovely creation is sure to become a treasured heirloom. Measures 37 inches high x 22 inches wide x 12 inches long.
