Iron Bound Chinese Shop Chest - 19th Century Finish - Grey Lacquer this cabinet was made beforeThis lovely bleached wood Chinese shop chest was originally custom made for storage in a hardware shop in Shanxi. It's pained with the shop name 'Jing Su Huo Ju' and was sourced in Shanxi. We love the iron binding on this chest and it's just perfect for adding a bit of intrigue to your home storage. It would also work perfectly as a side table. This chest is crafted from what the Chinese call nanmu a group of woods which the Chinese call 'fir wood'
