About Color Finishing
The Wooden Cabinet is adorned with traditional colors, creating a captivating aesthetic through a combination of gold and various hues. This painting technique follows a time-honored process that aims to faithfully represent the Wooden Cabinet in accordance with traditional color descriptions.
