ANTIQUE CHINESE
WOOD CARVINGS
Priced from $5-$50
These
intricate wooden carvings are decorative pieces from Qing Dynasty era (17th
- 19th century) structures and furniture.
Many buildings were destroyed by the Red Guards during the Cultural
Revolution of the 1960’s but several hundred of the carvings were recently
discovered by our buyer in a country warehouse four hours outside of Shanghai.
Skillfully carved from single pieces of yu
mu (elm wood), the carvings were joined in mosaics placed on walls, doors,
windows, and furniture within the interiors of gardens, temples and homes of the
cultural and literate elite.
We have retrieved several hundred and now offer you a chance to own a
piece of Chinese history.
