A beautiful antique Chinese sideboard with interesting and additional feature of a lockable central compartment with key. I've had this cabinet for over 10 years, I bought it from a friend who lived in HongKong in the 1990's and she had purchased it from a high end Hong Kong furniture retailer and thought it special enough to ship back to the UK on her return! Wood (poss elm?) with metal (prob brass) hinges, handles and central key plate. Lovely patina, super colour. Length 140cm, width 52cm, height 62cm. Great size, works equally well as a lounge/diningroom or bedroom piece. Unusual lock mechanism for central cupboard, the key is T shaped and is not a twist opening but opened using downward pressure. Central posts of other cupboards also are removable to allow for larger items to be stored inside. The top has taken a bit of wear and could benefit from a quick polish. There has been some separation of the wood on the top, I believe that could be fixed by a restorer or filled if required. Overall condition is great. Selling due to house move. see my 100% positive feedback and other beautiful or interesting items for sale. Buyer collects from SE London or arranges own courier service.
