A Magnificent Display Cabinet (Etagier), China, late 19th / early 20th century
This is clearly one of the finest of its type we have handled. While it is a large piece with separate upper and lower sections, it is quite airy and open, given the magnificent open carving throughout. Please take a moment to study the details. There is almost no surface which isn’t finely carved, and the arched pediment with grapes and gourd vines is magnificently executed. What a great piece to display fine objects! There are no alterations or repairs and it retains its original surface. This piece is the best of the best and certainly a masterpiece.
