Orchid Furniture is leading the way when it comes to locating original Chinese Antiques, carefully sourced from China, which fit superbly with English lifestyles.
Chinoiserie is one of the hottest trends this year and Orchid Furniture’s selection of superb quality Wedding Cabinets, is an ideal way to embrace the Oriental style:
Traditionally in Southern China a Wedding Cabinet was filled throughout a girl’s life with homely gifts towards her eventual marriage; it would then leave with her on her wedding day as part of her dowry.
Â
They provide the perfect place for keeping favourite cashmere jumpers or freshly cleaned linens.
It can also be used in the dining room to display favourite china and crystal, or as a stylish drinks cabinet.
Made from Elm wood, each cabinet features a circular plate with a metal fastening, which closes to create what is known as the ‘togetherness panel’.
Orchid carefully restores every cabinet using traditional restorers, to maintain the integrity of the piece; they are fitted with two removable shelves and a hanging rail as standard, but can be adapted to suit a variety of uses.
Â
Featured here is a Chinese 19th Century Lacquered elm, black wedding Cabinet. (LH1-54) Priced at £1285.
Height 175cm ; Depth 50cm; Width 100 cm.
