Chinese Quadrilobe Lattice Courtyard Panel, c. 1850

About the Item

This elegant, 19th-century door panel evokes life in a traditional courtyard home, where the openwork lattice design allowed light and air to flow into the inner rooms while maintaining privacy for its occupants. Creating lattice was a geometric puzzle; this elaborate quadrilobe pattern was made by the precise interlocking of long and short pieces of carved wood. The wax-finished, knotted fir panel is finished with finely carved and pierced top panels of archaistic dragons forming geometric scrollwork around a central flaming pearl. Some restoration to the top of the frame.

Set of Four Chinese Courtyard Door Panels, c. 1850

Located in Chicago, IL

A hallmark of Chinese architecture, tall door panels such as these were used in provincial courtyard homes to easily open up a room to the outdoors. Designed with solid wood panels instead of lattice windows, these door panels were likely installed facing the street, used to protect the home rather than provide decoration. The doors were originally linked by hinges set in opposite directions, allowing the doors to fold upon themselves as they open. Instead of the elaborate carvings often found on Qing-dynasty doors...
