I made this small TV stand for an older couple who have several antique furniture pieces in their house, some of them from China. I suggested we make the new piece in a style to go along with their oriental items, and after a bit of research I came up with a cabinet patterned after typical small antique Chinese cabinets.
The cabinet could have been fancied up with contrasting wood species and/or contrasting finishes--playing with some of the exotic design elements--but we kept it simple after all, and both I and the customers were pleased with the result done in cherry wood with a warm red-brown finish. The piece is functional and fits in well in the room.
