Questions About Antique Chinese Screens
- What is a Chinese screen?1 Answer
Lotus GallerySeptember 23, 2020A Chinese screen can refer to a number or things, including standing folding room dividers, architectural window or door screen panels, or even decorative latticework hangings.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022A Chinese Coromandel screen is a folding piece of furniture produced in China by artisans working with a certain material. Specifically, the screens are Coromandel, a hardwood that features black and brown stripes. The screens often function as room dividers, but some people display them purely for decorative purposes. On 1stDibs, find a collection of Coromandel screens.
PAGODA REDOctober 7, 2020To determine the age of a Chinese furniture piece, look carefully at the joinery and finish. Natural expansion and contraction of the wood over time will cause a joint to protrude or retract, distorting a once-seamless fit. Antique lacquer finishes become crackled and worn over time. Areas of exposed wood, such as the underside of a table, the footrest of a chair, or the back of a cabinet should appear raw and dry compared to the finished surface. With use, the legs of tables and chairs become weathered near the bottom from precipitation and use.
- Lotus GallerySeptember 23, 2020
The best way to know is to take it to an expert, such as an appraiser, reputable dealer or auction house, or museum
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 4, 2024To identify antique Chinese furniture, look carefully at its details. Chinese craftsmen often built furniture using mortise and tenon joinery, eliminating the need for nails and screws. If you see this type of hardware, your piece is likely not at least 100 years old, especially if the hardware still looks new and shiny. Since antique furniture was handmade, you will normally see slight imperfections, such as tool marks or slight variations in carvings. Pieces that appear completely uniform and pristine are less often genuine antiques.
When present, maker's marks can also be helpful. Research the marks to learn more about when the maker was active and producing pieces like yours. Alternatively, you can have a certified appraiser or experienced antique dealer evaluate your furniture for you.
