FAQs

Mother of pearl inlay on lacquer, historically known as luodian, is a traditional Chinese craft with origins dating back over a thousand years, reaching widespread production during the Ming and Qing dynasties for decorative household wares.

These platters were crafted using carved wood bases sealed with multiple coats of natural tree resin lacquer, into which shaped pieces of iridescent iridescent sea shell or mother-of-pearl were embedded.

Authentic pieces from around 1900 typically feature hand-carved shell segments set directly into the lacquer layers, showing slight natural variations in shell thickness and subtle surface craquelure from age.

A lacquered platter can be positioned on an easel stand atop a sideboard, laid flat on a console table as a decorative catchall, or mounted securely on a focal wall.

Keep lacquerware away from direct sunlight, central heating vents, and high humidity, dusting gently with a clean, dry microfibre cloth while avoiding chemical polishes or water immersion.
