Ming Dynasty Style Wedding Chair with Carved Medallion and Curving Arms
About the Item
An antique Chinese Ming Dynasty style wooden wedding chair from the early 20th century, with carved medallion, curving armrests and natural wood patina. The chair’s open back is elegantly adorned with a curving splat, featuring a central medallion carved in low relief, symbolizing harmony and unity—an apt motif for a piece originally intended for a bride to be led to meet her future husband. Flanking the back are gracefully curving open arms, enhanced by gooseneck front posts that descend onto a sturdy planked wooden seat. The sinuous side posts provide additional structural integrity and visual flow, connecting the chair's design elements.
The chair stands proudly on four straight legs, supported by an arch-shaped apron and stabilized with stretchers at varying heights, contributing to both the piece's sturdiness and its aesthetic charm. The natural wood patina showcases the passage of time and the loving care it has received over the years, adding character to its clean lines and balanced proportions.
This Ming Dynasty style armchair, with its refined curves and understated elegance, makes for a perfect decorative accent in any home. It can be placed in a foyer to greet guests, serve as an elegant side chair in a living room, or enhance the serenity of a bedroom or office. Wherever it is placed, this chair will exude a sense of history, grace, and timeless style, making it a cherished addition to any interior.
