Most Chinese homes contained shrines to household deities who had specific domestic or heavenly terrain. Daily or seasonal veneration of these spirits, as well as Buddhist, Daoist, and ancestral worthies, assured temporal worlds would be maintained. The current huanghuali temple-form shrine is of substantial size would have been made for an affluent household.

Compare with a pair of huanghuali temple-form shrines sold at Christie’s Hong Kong, 3 December 2008, lot 2534.
