About the Item

This low Qing-style chair, probably identifiable as a "Rosa" chair, is a fine example of Chinese craftsmanship, made in Jiangsu, China, around 1860. Typical for its angular structure, with straight armrests and backrest, this chair stands out for its refined design and precise construction, characteristics often found in seating used in formal or intimate settings during the Qing era. The carving on the backrest is a true masterpiece of craftsmanship. The central panel depicts Zhao Gong Ming, the god of wealth in Chinese folk religion. Intricately detailed, the god is shown sitting on a mythical creature, likely a Qilin, symbolizing power and good fortune, while a servant accompanies him with great reverence. These carvings tell a story of mythology and tradition, making the chair not just a piece of furniture but a cultural testimony. The design of the chair is robust, with geometric lines that give solidity and symmetry to the structure. The armrests, with precisely sculpted curves, harmonize beautifully with the rest of the frame. The wood used, likely a durable and valuable variety, has acquired a fascinating patina over time, bearing witness to its historical character and authenticity. Crafted in the heart of China during the Qing dynasty, this chair perfectly represents the balance between functionality and decorative beauty. An ideal piece for those looking to enrich their space with an authentic antique, steeped in the tradition and charm of Chinese art.
