About the Item
A Chinese Ming Dynasty style elmwood scholar's lamp-hanger armchair from the late 19th century, with carved splat, dark patina, curving arms and side stretchers. Born during the Qing Dynasty in the later years of the 19th century, this exquisite elmwood scholar's lamp-hanger armchair, or dengguayi, exudes timeless elegance and refined craftsmanship. The chair features an elegant tall back, crowned with a gracefully curving rail, giving it a regal presence. The central section showcases a concave-shaped pierced splat, intricately decorated with a carved flower, a mythical animal, and a flaming motif, adding a touch of sophistication and cultural significance.
The chair’s sinuous open arms with out-scrolling extremities rest gracefully on the rectangular wooden seat, providing both comfort and aesthetic appeal. Raised on four straight legs connected by plain side stretchers, the chair is further accentuated by a delicately carved skirt, enhancing its overall elegance.
The contrast between the concave silhouette of the splat and the convex lines of the lateral supports creates a harmonious balance, making this armchair a visual delight. The dark patina of the elmwood adds depth and character, emphasizing the chair's historical charm.
Perfect for a variety of settings, this 1880s Chinese scholar's lamp-hanger armchair can serve as a stunning decorative accent in an office, foyer, bedroom, or living room. Its blend of functional design and artistic beauty ensures it will be a cherished addition to any home, bringing a touch of refined elegance and cultural heritage to your decor. This armchair not only embodies the rich traditions of Chinese craftsmanship but also serves as a timeless piece that enhances the aesthetic appeal of any interior space.
