Chests & Trunks

Chests, or trunks fulfill much the same storage function as cabinets in a Chinese household, and like cabinets, they come in a huge variety of sizes, some as big as a Queen size bed used primarily for seasonal clothing and beddings, others as small as a card box held items from hair ornaments to documents. According to the Chinese Ming dynasty dictionary, "All furniture with a bottom and lid that can be used for storage is called a chest"
