Antique Korean Bandaji Changhung Type from Jeolla Do
About the Item
An antique Bandaji chest from Korea circa late 19th century Joseon Dynasty. The relatively small open-front cabinet was constructed from stained elm wood and fitted with thin hammered iron hardware. It was produced Changhung area (nowadays Jangheung-gun) on the southern tip of Jeolla Do. The cabinet is smaller in size and features a top plank that slightly extends over the front panel. The hardware decoration is similar to Bandaji from Jeju Do with the distinction that they were flatter and thinner, lack of ornamentation such as engraving or cutout. This is evident in the large cloud-shaped hinges presented on this cabinet (compared to a piece for sale in our gallery from Jeju-do LU945036806882). The cabinet also features exposed finger joints between the top and side panels and is supported by Jokdae style timber legs. It has handles on both sides for easy transportation. The interior is equipped with two small drawers on the top and is unlined.

- Antique Korean Wedding Bandaji Chest Joseon DynastyLocated in Atlanta, GAA striking Korean Bandaji with lots of original patina circa 19th century of late Joseon Dynasty. Bandaji is known as drop front half-opening chest that was used to store family valuables and beddings. The Bandaji on offer was made in Pyongyang area in now North Korea and was clearly intended as a wedding chest. Constructed in limewood (also known as Lindenwood), which is rather plain and lacks grains, the chest was instead sumptuously decorated with nickel-copper (Paktong or white copper) plates, stripes and studs. Covering nearly the entire front of the cabinet, the metal plates were placed with eye-pleasing symmetry pattern. The top row is centered with a large square lock plate with latch and a heavy fish lock (no key), flanked by a pair of pulls set on plates in longevity mushroom pattern (lingzi). The middle row has a large cloud-form hinge in the center, flanked by three vertical pairs of rectangular hinges. The lower row features a large embossed and chased square plate with a character "Double happiness" in the center, a Hanja character reserved for the wedding ceremony. On both sides, large pair...Category
