A lovely example of a Ming dynasty styled Chinese Wedding Cabinet Black Lacquer with Circular Brass Medallion.

There are a few minor bumps and bruises on the legs but these add to the character of the piece. Also the drawers are missing the handles.


As you can see I'm using as a TV cabinet. There are a couple of circular holes in the back for cabling etc. My TV is 42" and is a perfect fit for the cabinet.

Dimensions are 1075mm width x 590mm depth x 1730mm height.

Collection from Epsom.
