Questions About Chinese Antique Symbols
PAGODA REDOctober 21, 2020Valued for its rarity and lustrous appearance, jade has been thought to symbolize excellence and purity of human virtue. When worn as jewelry or as a protective charm, the stone was thought to imbue a person with a clear mind and pure spirit, and to guard against evil spirits or illness.
- PAGODA REDOctober 7, 2020
To determine the age of a Chinese furniture piece, look carefully at the joinery and finish. Natural expansion and contraction of the wood over time will cause a joint to protrude or retract, distorting a once-seamless fit. Antique lacquer finishes become crackled and worn over time. Areas of exposed wood, such as the underside of a table, the footrest of a chair, or the back of a cabinet should appear raw and dry compared to the finished surface. With use, the legs of tables and chairs become weathered near the bottom from precipitation and use.
Lotus GallerySeptember 23, 2020The best way to know is to take it to an expert, such as an appraiser, reputable dealer or auction house, or museum
