The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Chinoiserie lighting refers to European-made lamps and light fixtures inspired by traditional East Asian artistic styles, featuring hand-painted motifs, lacquerwork, and oriental iconography.

These lamps were constructed using turned wood or composite bases, finished with layered resin lacquer, decorated with hand-painted pigment and gilding, and fitted with brass electrical mountings.

Authentic period lamps display natural age-related craquelure to the lacquered surface, period-correct brass bayonet light fittings, turned timber stems, and individually hand-painted brushwork rather than printed patterns.

Place the lamp on a dark wood sideboard, bedside cabinet, or writing desk paired with neutral ceramics or modern artwork to create a balanced contrast between period detailing and contemporary design.

Dust the surface regularly using a soft, dry microfibre cloth, and avoid liquid cleaners or abrasive polishes which can strip the original gilding and lacquer finish.
