Tea tasting is an important way for people to slow down the pace of life and understand themselves and the world. Adhering to the simple and moderate design concepts, this household mini side cabinet with a plain yet elegant appearance serves as a multi-functional storage area, dedicated to transforming the tea service space into a relaxing and elegant environment.

The product goes with various home styles with classic and versatile designs. Light-stained dark American walnut with a clear grain adds a scent of nature and a warmer visual effect. The wooden grille strip door on the cabinet can be opened and closed along the track with a smooth wood grain, saving the door opening space and presenting a light aesthetic feeling.

The “herringbone” support structures on the tabletop and the side adopt an integrated design. The side “herringbone” support structure ensures the stability with the least materials cost, and stands out from similar products with its unique shape. With the combination of the tabletop with different heights and the herringbone support structures on the side of the cabinet, the functional areas are therefore distinguished and a rational storage mindset is hightlighted.

The outstanding storage functions and finely honed details are also worth mentioning. The inside of the cabinet is colored with baking varnish, and the double-layer top with a concave shape can effectively prevent items from falling.

The center of pressure of the tabletop is behind the center of gravity so that it will not fall to the ground. The commonly used side edges are decorated with metal strips, which adds to the diverse textures of the whole product. This not only reduces the bumps on the wooden edges but also prolongs the service life of the product. Additionally, the simple components of the cabinet body save transportation costs and are convenient for users to assemble the product themselves.
