This antique Chinese apothecary chest, made in Shanxi around 1880, displays expert craftsmanship and design. Originally used in wealthy households or by traditional apothecaries, it features 35 small drawers with ring handles and internal dividers. Each drawer has a handwritten Chinese label indicating its contents, with the original elm wood finish blending nicely with the faded labels for a muted effect. This beautifully preserved piece is a rare find and would make a unique addition to any space.
