  • Pair of Chinese Iron Bound Courtyard Doors, c. 1900
    Located in Chicago, IL
    This impressive set of doors dates to the turn of the century and originated as the outermost entrance gate to a traditional courtyard home in northern China.

  • Set of Four Chinese Courtyard Door Panels, c. 1850
    Located in Chicago, IL
    A hallmark of Chinese architecture, tall door panels such as these were used in provincial courtyard homes to easily open up a room to the outdoors. Designed with solid wood panels instead of lattice windows, these door panels were likely installed facing the street, used to protect the home rather than provide decoration. The doors were originally linked by hinges set in opposite directions, allowing the doors to fold upon themselves as they open. Instead of the elaborate carvings often found on Qing-dynasty doors...
