This antique camphor wood chest offers detailed craftsmanship and practical design. The exterior is deeply carved with scenes featuring figures, horses, dragons, birds, and pagodas. A brass clasp on the front matches the hardware found on traditional pieces. Camphor chests were often used for storing clothing and textiles because the natural aroma of the wood helped protect them from moths and other insects.
