Late 19th.c. Chinese Rosewood Chair. chinese rosewood chair %%alt5%% %%alt6%%
Unusual late 19th.c. Chinese carved rosewood side chair c.1890. As is typical of Chinese art the design is full of pointed symbolism aimed at bringing the owner of the chair a long and happy life. Note how the backrest frame and rear legs are carved to resemble sprouting bamboo symbolising resilience whilst the centre splat features a seal with tasselled chord over a deer, a symbol for longevity and prosperity, amongst foliage. Sitting on top of the backrest crouches the stylised form of a bat, the symbol for happiness and joy. Unusual round seat carved around the ege with further foliate detail on a very un-Chinese style (but original) turned front leg suggesting the chair could well have been made for the colonial British Chinese market. In very good untouched and original condition. Please contact us for more images, delivery and shipping quotes. Alternatively you are welcome to view and collect at our large warehouse showroom in Llandudno Junction, North Wales (approximately 45mins from Chester). We have a large and ever changing selection of genuine good quality antique furniture of all types and have twice been shortlisted for the Home and Antiques Magazine Antique Shop of the Year Award. 01492 580022.
