FAQs

Chinoiserie represents the European interpretation and imitation of Chinese and East Asian artistic traditions, highly popular during the 17th and 18th centuries, characterised by hand-painted motifs and lacquered finishes.

Authentic pieces typically utilise solid hardwoods finished with multiple layers of resin-based lacquer, hand-gilded details in gold leaf, and traditional joinery methods such as mortise and tenon.

Authenticity is determined by examining the craquelure in the lacquer, hand-painted brushwork details, traditional wood shrinkage patterns, and period-appropriate joinery beneath the seat frame.

This piece works effectively as an eclectic focal point in minimalist or transitional spaces, contrasting sharply against neutral walls or paired with a contemporary desk.

Dust surfaces gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and avoid exposure to direct sunlight, extreme humidity, or chemical cleaning agents which can damage the delicate lacquer finish.
