Shanxi Elm Buddha Cabinet d110 Perfect as an ornament toShanxi, circa 1860 This beautiful cabinet, with doors set centrally on small hinges and multiple frames and panels, is in a style referred to as a 'Buddha cabinet', produced specifically to hold a statue of the Buddha inside.

The drawers at the top and bottom would have been painted to pick out the deep relief carvings.
