Red Lacquer Wedding Chest with Gilt Foo Dogs and Calligraphy Motifs

Located in Yonkers, NY

Vibrant and richly detailed, this small Chinese red lacquered blanket chest was designed as a traditional wedding gift and carries with it layers of symbolic meaning and decorative appeal.

A traditional iron clasp secures the top, which opens to reveal a yellow fabric-lined interior, the color itself associated with prosperity and imperial favor. On the chest’s façade, gilt guardian lions—foo dogs—flank a ribbon-tied ball, representing the safeguarding of domestic harmony. Above them, a series of gilt-painted calligraphic symbols and circular medallions reference the phoenix, the dragon, and the number nine...
