Tall Antique Kitchen Cabinet from Zhejiang Province

A tall kitchen cabinet from Zhejiang province, featuring doors with a clean geometric lattice pattern.

The cabinet was originally finished in a reddish-brown stain, but as it was no longer in good condition, it has been carefully stripped back to reveal the natural wood grain. Traces of the original red tone can still be seen along some edges, adding to its character.

It has openwork panels on three sides, with the side fretwork different from the front, giving it variation without being overly decorative.

The front has four doors, and they can be secured with a simple wooden latch system, where a peg slides into the centre stile to keep the doors properly closed.
