Located in Auribeau sur Siagne, FR
Early 20th Century Chinese Wooden Rice Measure with Copper Fittings – Collectible with Rich Patina Description: This authentic Chinese rice measure, crafted in wood with copper and blackened metal fittings, dates from the early 20th century and was traditionally used for measuring and transporting rice. Featuring hand-assembled wooden planks joined with metal corner reinforcements, this piece displays a rich brown patina that testifies to its age and use. A functional tool of rural Chinese life, it now stands as a beautiful decorative object or collector's piece, ideal for adding authentic character and cultural depth to an interior. Key features include: Traditional Chinese Craftsmanship: Constructed with fine wooden planks, joined and stabilized with blackened metal brackets and copper fittings, this measure showcases practical design rooted in vernacular tradition.
