Shanxi, circa 1920

Refinished in a dark teal lacquer, this lovely antique Chinese sideboard is from Shanxi province in central China.

In a symmetrical form, with two doors and two drawers on each side along with a carved apron showing stylised dragons, it would be ideal as a dining room sideboard or for storage in a living room. The small drop handles are a recent addition, along with the removable shelves inside.
