About the Item
A red lacquered cabinet adorned with hand-painted butterfly and foliage motifs, this tall storage piece offers both visual richness and practical function. The surface is finished in a bold red lacquer, worn and distressed over time to reveal a layered patina that speaks to its age and character. Gilt detailing adds depth and contrast, with whimsical butterflies and stylized leaves scattered across the surface in a rhythm that feels both playful and elegant.
The cabinet features two sets of double doors, each fitted with large circular medallion hardware and traditional campanula-style pulls. These open to reveal a dark, shelved interior, ideal for storing linens, books, or other household items. Two small central drawers, situated between the upper and lower compartments, are accented with floral backplates and petite ring pulls for added detail and everyday utility.
Raised on low feet with a shaped apron and recessed side panels, the piece has a strong vertical presence while maintaining delicate detailing throughout. Sold as is, this cabinet shows visible areas of lacquer loss and wear, all consistent with its age and adding to its authentic charm.
Whether used in a bedroom, dining area, or living room, this vibrant cabinet provides storage wrapped in history and bold color. It functions beautifully as a statement piece in spaces that welcome texture, cultural richness, and layered character.
