拍品专文

These cabinets appear to be unique. The use of silver-wire inlay on such a hardwood as huanghuali is particularly rare, as this inlaid technique would have been considerably challenging for the craftsman. A pair of related kang cabinets of similar size, with ornately carved door panels, is illustrated The Dr. S.Y. Yip Collection of Classic Chinese Furniture II, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, 1998, pp. 126-127, no. 34.
