Featuring intricate carvings of traditional landscapes, mythological figures, or auspicious symbols, these chests were used in China for storing valuables, heirlooms, or as dowry chests. During the colonial era and post-World War periods, they became highly popular export pieces to Europe and America, often brought back by Western travelers and soldiers. The rise of Chinese-inspired décor in the early 20th century, particularly with Art Deco influences, further solidified their desirability. This piece is very well kept, showing natural antique aging, with details visible in the pictures.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Flea Market","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40560237543496,"sku":"DESIAM_0092","price":409200.0,"currency_code":"THB","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/6267\/0920\/files\/Photoroom_002_25680106_203046-Photoroom.jpg?v=1742102066","url":"https:\/\/surroundliving.com\/en-uk\/products\/fine-art-engraved-antique-chinese-storage-chest","provider":"Surround Living","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
