In ancient China, kitchens were an important part of daily life. While the concept of a lazy Susan may not have been present, ancient Chinese kitchens did have innovative storage solutions. Tiered shelves were commonly used to store various kitchen items such as bowls, plates, and cooking utensils. These shelves were often made of wood or bamboo and allowed for easy access to all items. The tiered design also helped to maximize storage space in the small and compact kitchens of ancient China.
