The top frames the cabinet with a repeating 'key fret' design which is characteristic of Eastern Tibetan furniture where there was a stronger Chinese cultural influence

The adze marks from the construction of this grain scoop combine perfectly with the smooth finish (gained by decades of constant use) and a wonderful rich patina to result in a totally unique decorative piece

The result is a piece that is not only decorative but deeply personal and culturally significant
