Vintage Chinese red and gold cabinet with flowers and birds (lacquer cabinet)

DESCRIPTION: A unique Oriental cabinet. These cabinets are from the 1970s, a period when Chinoiserie experienced a revival. This style originated in the mid-18th century, when entire castles were filled with Chinese and Eastern furniture and objects. During the 1970s, such furniture was made and each piece is unique. All elements are applied by hand, giving each cabinet an artistic touch. The hand-painted lines are clearly visible. It is painted and engraved on all sides, including the interior. The front and sides feature birds and flowers with painted engravings. The front also depicts phoenixes (firebirds). The inside is painted with bamboo. After painting, everything is finished with lacquer. There are two cabinet spaces: the upper one, which used to house a TV, and a lower cabinet space. In short, a beautiful cabinet for enthusiasts. DIMENSIONS: Height: 144.5cm, Width: 105cm, Depth: 58cm. Upper cabinet height: 62cm, Lower cabinet height: 42.5cm, Cabinet width: 95cm, Cabinet depth: 50cm. CONDITION: Some spots where the lacquer is damaged, which have been touched up where possible (see last photos for a better idea of the condition). The price takes the condition into account.
