The present cabinet, remarkable for the refined
craftmanship, is described by Lee Yu-Kuan in
Oriental Lacquer Art, p.322, as ‘used by high
officials for storing the clothing and accessories
required for their appearances before the emperor
or their superiors. Hats and other headdresses
were kept in the top section, while the main part of
the cabinet contained court costumes and various
accessories.’

Compare with a similar red lacquer cabinet,
Ming dynasty, early 17th century, illustrated by
M.Beurdeley, Chinese Furniture, Tokyo, New York
and San Francisco, 1979, p.129, pl.175.
