Our Range of New and Vintage Chinese Cabinets
A Chinese cabinet makes a wonderful addition to any home, carrying with it a sense of history, craftsmanship and tradition. At Kayu Home, we source both original antique and newly made cabinets that showcase the heritage of oriental furniture, offering timeless designs that blend beautifully into contemporary and classic interiors alike. Whether it's an intricately carved lacquered piece or a simple, elegant elmwood design, each cabinet is perfect for bringing a touch of Chinese history into your home.
Chinese Cupboards Crafted from Reclaimed Materials
Much of our Chinese cupboard collection is crafted from reclaimed wood, staying true to our commitment to sustainability. Salvaged elm, poplar and pine from old buildings in China are repurposed by skilled carpenters, ensuring that each piece retains its character and minimises environmental impact. This approach allows us to preserve the authenticity of traditional Chinese furniture while offering something that fits beautifully into modern homes.
Antique Chinese cabinets are particularly special. Sourced directly from China, these pieces often date back decades, sometimes even centuries, and were originally used for storage in homes, temples and businesses. They are meticulously restored to maintain their original patina while ensuring they are fully functional for contemporary use. The rich, deep tones of aged elmwood, the subtle wear of hand-painted finishes, and the time-worn edges all add to their charm, making them one-of-a-kind centrepieces.
New Chinese Cabinets in Traditional Designs
If you’re looking for something more contemporary, our newly made Chinese cabinets take inspiration from traditional designs but with a fresh perspective. Many feature classic frame and panel construction, with mortise and tenon joinery—a technique used for centuries to create durable, long-lasting furniture. These designs work well in both minimalist and eclectic interiors, offering a refined yet relaxed aesthetic.
The beauty of oriental furniture lies in its versatility. A Chinese cupboard can be used in a variety of ways, whether as a statement piece in a hallway, a stylish drinks cabinet in a dining room, or practical storage in a bedroom. The simple elegance of Chinese design, often featuring symmetrical forms and clean lines, makes it easy to integrate into different styles of décor. Whether paired with modern Scandinavian pieces or placed alongside vintage finds, these cabinets bring warmth and depth to any space.
Sustainability is at the heart of what we do at Kayu Home, and that extends to our antique and vintage selections. Choosing a pre-loved cabinet adds unique character to a home and helps to reduce demand for new timber, making it an environmentally responsible choice. The same principle applies to our reclaimed wood collections, where each cabinet is crafted from materials that have already lived a previous life, bringing with them a sense of history and depth.
