By adding doors in the front, using once fixed panels, the unit has been modified to be more functional with the interior also including adjustable shelves. It has been carefully refurbished and adorned with a dark orange, distressed lacquer. Featuring the central paintings of flowers in pinks and greens, along with butterflies - symbols of longevity and marital bliss in China, this cabinet makes a stunning addition to any interior. less
