Chinese Red Lacquer & Brass Side Table Removable Ice Chest Style Hoof Foot Base

Description

Handsome Chinese red lacquer and brass ice chest, planter, accent table with galvanized insert and lid on hoof foot style removable base. This piece is in wonderful vintage condition with a very nice age patina. One leg has a little more patina than the rest but not unattractive. Please see photos. Circa 1960s.
This is a fabulous unique item from our private collection that we have decided someone else needs to enjoy. We have used this Chinoiserie piece as an accent side table-trash bin. Through research it appears this lovely piece was originally an Asian ice chest of some sort and this one is circa 1960s. Comprised of a Chinese red lacquered hooved Asian style square base with a removable trapezoid shaped box adorned with bands of brass faux bamboo and incredible brass Asian styled handles to lift it from the base. The chest or box has a removable galvanized insert and is topped by a pair of removable hinge-less doors with an open carved circular Oriental style design in the center, half on each door, which acts as handles. Its beautiful; unusual; versatile in style and use; and sure to be a source of visual joy! You just need to make it your own.
