19th Century Chinese Elm & Brass Armoire

This impressive tall antique Chinese cabinet is a powerful testament to the elegant minimalism of traditional craftsmanship. Likely dating to the late 19th or early 20th century (Late Qing or Republican era), this piece is built from stunning, golden-hued elm wood, prized in Asia for its beautiful grain and durability. The clean, rectilinear form is defined by its dramatic, oversized circular brass medallion on the double doors—a classic design element that suggests a “moon gate” and symbolizes harmony and good fortune. Inside, the cabinet is fitted with a long wooden shelf, which shows the warping typical of its age, and two functional interior drawers, providing versatile storage.
