FAQs

Chinoiserie is a European artistic style that reflects Chinese artistic influences, popularised during the 17th and 18th centuries through trade with East Asia, characterised by lacquering, gilt motifs, and whimsical scenes.

Traditional pieces are typically constructed from dense hardwoods such as beech, mahogany, or pine, which are then coated in multiple layers of resin lacquer before being hand-painted and gilded with gold leaf.

Authentic period items often display hand-mixed natural resins, subtle variations in the hand-painted gilt work, traditional joinery methods, and natural ageing of the lacquer surface such as fine craquelure.

Such an item serves as a focal point in a contemporary setting by pairing it with neutral walls, minimalist furnishings, or contrasting textures to highlight the intricate black and gold surface work.

Lacquered surfaces should be kept out of direct sunlight to prevent fading, dusted regularly with a soft dry cloth, and maintained in stable humidity conditions to avoid cracking the finish.
