Questions About Chinese Inlay Furniture
- What is bone inlay furniture?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Bone inlay furniture is any piece of furniture that shows off embedded pieces of bone. Often, the inlay is in an intricate geometric or floral pattern. On 1stDibs, find a large collection of bone inlay furniture from some of the world’s top sellers.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Bone inlay furniture is usually made out of wood or metal. An artisan creates carvings along the top, front or sides of the piece and then carefully applies pieces of natural bone to add ornamentation to the furnishings. On 1stDibs, shop a range of bone inlay furniture.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Mother of pearl inlay furniture is a chair, table or case good usually made out of wood and embellished with fragments of oyster or mussel shells called mother of pearl. Furniture makers make carvings into the furniture and then carefully add the cut mother of pearl. On 1stDibs, find a range of mother of pearl inlay furniture.
- 1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023To care for Chinese lacquered furniture, wipe it with a damp cloth regularly. You can use a paste wax intended for use on lacquer finishes to restore shine, but avoid using harsh furniture polishes and cleaners on pieces. On 1stDibs, shop a range of lacquered furniture.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Chinese-style furniture is usually called Chinoiserie. The term indicates furniture and decorative objects produced in Europe and North America that borrow design elements from pieces made in China and other East Asian countries. On 1stDibs, find a collection of Chinoiserie.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 4, 2024To identify antique Chinese furniture, look carefully at its details. Chinese craftsmen often built furniture using mortise and tenon joinery, eliminating the need for nails and screws. If you see this type of hardware, your piece is likely not at least 100 years old, especially if the hardware still looks new and shiny. Since antique furniture was handmade, you will normally see slight imperfections, such as tool marks or slight variations in carvings. Pieces that appear completely uniform and pristine are less often genuine antiques.
When present, maker's marks can also be helpful. Research the marks to learn more about when the maker was active and producing pieces like yours. Alternatively, you can have a certified appraiser or experienced antique dealer evaluate your furniture for you.
Shop an assortment of antique Chinese furniture. 
PAGODA REDOctober 7, 2020To 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.
