Item Details

A fabulous black & gilt Japanned Chinoiserie chest on stand. English. Circa 1920.


A very decorative accent piece, the work on the chest depicting noble figures in traditional Chinese dress, alongside trees, foliage and a pagoda to the front. The sides having a crane in flight to one side, and two cranes beside the water with foliage to the other. All with geometric and floral boarders. The underside of the lid having a floral gilt design.


The chest sits on the original ornate gilded stand with cabriole legs terminating on claw and ball hairy feet. With a carved central motif below a Japanned frieze.


With the original patina, there is rubbing and differences to the finish in places. The whole with light knocks and marks giving this great character.


Very sturdy with no loose joints, free from any woodworm. The are some corner blocks missing to the stand, but this does not affect its stability.


The interior is 73cm wide x 43cm deep x 45cm high.
