About the Item

A Chinese late Qing Dynasty period red lacquered shop sign with hand carved calligraphy and black and yellow frame. Showcasing a rich history, this late Qing Dynasty period Chinese shop sign is an elegant piece that transports you to a bygone era. With its eye-catching red lacquered finish, hand-carved calligraphy, and contrasting black and yellow frame, this antique sign is a statement piece that will captivate and inspire. The hand-carved calligraphy on the red lacquered surface displays the skillful artistry of Chinese artisans, while also offering a glimpse into the cultural and historical significance of the time. The striking red lacquer finish immediately draws the eye, infusing the sign with a vibrant and energetic presence. Red, a symbol of good luck and prosperity in Chinese culture, imbues the sign with auspicious meaning and ensures it stands out as a bold focal point in any setting. Framed by a contrasting black and yellow border, the sign is accentuated and further enhanced in its visual appeal. The bold black frame adds depth and dimension, while the yellow border, a color often associated with imperial power and authority, creates a harmonious balance with the red lacquer and calligraphy. This late Qing Dynasty period Chinese shop sign is a combination of rich history and cultural significance. The red lacquered finish, hand-carved calligraphy, and black and yellow frame come together to create a piece that will not only serve as a conversation starter but also elevate your interior design.
