The choice of huanghuali with a particularly attractive grain, evident on the beautifully matched panel doors, distinguishes the present chest as an especially desirable example of its type. Also note the fine baitong mounts, which are similar in form to those found on the ‘Piccus’ cabinet (lot 612), and the raised base, which is a particularly rare feature. Compare with a similar huanghuali seal chest from The Collection of Robert Hatfield Ellsworth, sold at Christie’s New York, 18 March 2015, lot 129.
