Questions About Ming Dynasty Altar
  • 1stDibs ExpertNovember 4, 2024
    To identify Ming dynasty furniture, first check the legs, back, undersides and other inconspicuous areas to see if you can locate any maker's markings. If you do, snap a photo with your phone and perform a reverse image search. You may be able to determine the maker and year of production. The Ming dynasty lasted from 1368 to 1644 in China. Furniture from this time period often features natural woods and shows off simple lines. Because artisans working during the era typically used mortise and tenon joinery, authentic Ming Dynasty furnishings will usually not have any visible nails or screws. However, there are many convincing reproductions on the market, so experts generally recommend having a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer perform the identification process for you. Shop a collection of Ming dynasty furniture on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertOctober 19, 2021
    A Ming dynasty vase is going to be worth a lot. In 2021, a blue and white Chinese bowl was bought at a yard sale in Connecticut that turned out to be a rare Ming dynasty-era ceramic work.
