FAQs

Chinoiserie is the European imitation and interpretation of Chinese and East Asian artistic traditions, particularly popular during the 17th and 18th centuries, characterised by motifs such as landscapes, figures, and fauna rendered in lacquer.

These cabinets were typically constructed from native timbers such as pine, oak, or deal, which were then built up with multiple layers of varnish or resin, cured, and hand-painted or gilt with metallic powders.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-forged iron or brass hardware, period-appropriate timber shrinkage, hand-mixed gesso and lacquer layers displaying natural ageing or crazing, and traditional joinery methods such as dovetailing.

Place the cabinet in a transitional or modern room to serve as a focal point, allowing its dark finish and metallic detailing to contrast cleanly against neutral walls.

Keep the item away from direct sunlight and extreme temperature fluctuations to prevent the lacquer from cracking. Dust gently with a dry, soft microfibre cloth and avoid chemical polishes or water.
