FAQs

Chinoiserie refers to a European artistic style inspired by East Asian motifs and decoration, which reached peak popularity during the 18th and 19th centuries. European craftsmen recreated Asian lacquerwork using techniques known as japanning, applying built-up varnishes and gilded detailing to decorative furniture.

Traditional 19th-century tray tables were constructed with timber or papier-mache tops finished in layers of dark lacquer. Decorators applied gold leaf or gilt paint to render detailed scenes, supported by turned wooden or metal frames with brass fittings.

Authentic period pieces display fine craquelure across the lacquered finish and natural rub-wear on raised gilded surfaces. Genuine bases feature traditional joinery, turned details, and signs of subtle wood shrinkage or oxidisation beneath the surface.

A low Chinoiserie tray table serves as an ideal central coffee table, introducing texture and historical pattern alongside contemporary upholstered seating. Pairing dark lacquered finishes with neutral textiles highlights the intricate gold brushwork.

Keep lacquered surfaces away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent cracking or warping. Dust gently with a clean microfibre cloth, avoiding water or abrasive chemical sprays, and apply microcrystalline wax sparingly to protect the painted finish.
