In ancient China, kitchens were an important part of the household, especially in wealthy households. However, glass-front cabinets with decorative wooden grilles were not a common feature in ancient Chinese kitchens. Chinese kitchens were typically equipped with clay stoves, woks, and various cooking utensils. The focus was on using fresh ingredients and traditional cooking techniques to create flavorful dishes. Chinese kitchens also often had storage cabinets and shelves to keep ingredients and utensils organized.
