Chinese Export Decorative Objects

CHINESE EXPORT STYLE

Expanded trade between Europe and East Asia, starting in the 16th century, led to a booming market for exported goods, particularly furniture. This was bolstered by the establishment of the Dutch and English East India Companies at the beginning of the 17th century. From folding screens and chairs to lacquer tables and silver, Chinese Export furniture was in demand and regularly copied and imitated, leading to styles like chinoiserie and Chinese Chippendale.

The expansion of exporting that had strengthened the arts during the Ming dynasty continued into the Qing dynasty era — Chinese designers made many furniture pieces specifically for export, resulting in distinctive designs that mixed traditional techniques with forms appealing to foreign buyers. For instance, cabinetmakers in Canton (modern-day Guangzhou) were prolific in crafting hardwood furniture for export in European styles that involved the expert joinery techniques of Chinese furniture. Designs for Chinese Export porcelain, cabinets, decorative objects and other furniture were often more ornately adorned than they would be for a local audience, such as with mother-of-pearl overlays or surfaces featuring lavish pictorial scenes or gold on black motifs. Some were even commissioned by wealthy European families to be adorned with their coat of arms.

Because lacquer furniture was especially prized, and the resin used to create it was difficult to import as it would harden during the long voyage, artisans in China and Japan exported numerous lacquer pieces. Long before lacquer made its way to Japan, the Chinese treated the material differently. They used it to create smooth, glossy surfaces, but also for carving, an art that began in the 12th century and is exclusively Chinese. These pieces are called cinnabar lacquer after the powdered mercury sulfide (cinnabar) employed to produce their characteristic red hue. A popular form for export was a compact cabinet with drawers, usually displayed on a small table. Undecorated furniture built in Europe was also shipped to China to be lacquered. The international exchange of design would influence furniture into the 19th century and later, informing styles such as Art Deco and Art Nouveau.

19th Century Spinach Jade Snuff Bottle with Crane and Baby Etching
Located in Lomita, CA
This spinach jade snuff bottle stands out from others because of the surface etching of a crane and its offspring, we are told. This snuff bottle is in very good condition with its original parts, as far as we can tell. Jade snuff bottles such as this, epitomize elegance and tradition in Chinese artistry. Crafted meticulously from precious jade, these diminutive vessels once held powdered tobacco, serving as ornate accessories for affluent individuals during the Qing Dynasty. Jade, revered for its symbolic significance and believed mystical properties, adds allure to these bottles. Spinach jade is a variety of jadeite, a mineral prized for its rich green color and translucency. This particular type of jadeite exhibits a deep green hue with darker veining, resembling the color of spinach leaves, hence the name. The intensity of the green can vary, ranging from light to dark shades. Spinach jade is highly valued in traditional Chinese culture and is often used in jewelry, carvings, and decorative objects. Its distinctive color and unique patterns make it sought after by collectors and enthusiasts of gemstones and lapidary art.
