FAQs

Chinoiserie is a European aesthetic style originating in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries that reflects Chinese artistic influences, frequently featuring lacquered finishes, motifs of figures, landscapes, and pagodas in gold.

Authentic pieces were crafted using layered tree sap lacquers applied to a wooden substrate, cured meticulously, and hand-gilded with gold leaf or powder to create intricate pictorial designs.

Authenticity is determined by inspecting the wooden backing, the ageing and oxidation of the mirror plate, the craquelure or wear within the lacquer layers, and hand-applied gilding rather than modern metallic paints.

These statement pieces work effectively as focal points in hallways or living rooms, paired with minimalist contemporary furnishings to let the rich colour and intricate patterns stand out.

Dust gently with a dry microfibre cloth and avoid all chemical cleaners, alcohol, or excessive moisture, which can permanently damage the delicate lacquered and gilded finish.
