Product description

This antique sideboard in elm wood presents original blue polychrome and painted panels of flowers and birds and hand-forged iron ring pulls. Originates from northern China, from the Qing dynasty, where local timber was joined with mortise and tenon and finished in lacquer or oil paint. The low two- or three-door sideboard is among the most widespread storage pieces of northern China. It stood against the wall of the main room, held tableware, clothing and grain, and its height allowed the top to serve as a work surface and a domestic altar. The carcass is solid wood joined with mortise and tenon, without a single screw. The doors are panels on a frame, turning on pivots cut into the stile itself rather than on metal hinges. The pulls are hand-forged iron rings on backplates. Each pair of doors carries a central painted panel with a flowering spray and a perched bird, framed within a pale reserve. The original polychrome survives worn to the point of exposing the wood at edges and corners, its colour dulled by sun and use. There are no repaints. The uneven surface, with layers showing through one another, is what gives the piece its value. It works as a dining room sideboard, a low living room cabinet or a hall console. Its length and contained height make it easy to place beneath a window or along a wide corridor, and the bare timber suits wabi-sabi, japandi and contemporary rustic interiors.
