In traditional Chinese homes, side cabinets served as storage for everything from tea sets to writing materials, often positioned against a wall or beside a daybed. Their compact size made them easy to move around, adapting to different needs while maintaining a refined aesthetic. Many feature double-door compartments with internal shelving, allowing for practical organization, while others have single-door sections or small drawers for added versatility.
Antique side cabinets may show layers of aged lacquer, hand-painted motifs, or finely carved details, reflecting the craftsmanship of their time. More contemporary versions made from reclaimed wood highlight natural textures and an understated beauty. Whether used for storage or display, these cabinets add depth and authenticity to a space.
