Antique Lattice Display Cabinet

product code: ACW-TY-7580
£1,845.00
D51 x H187 x W97 x cm

Jiangsu, circa 1920

This unusual display cabinet dates from the early 20th century but has been refinished in a distressed grey-green lacquer. It comes from Jiangsu province to the north of Shanghai, and would have been used originally to place cooked food inside ready for serving. The lattice panels in the front and sides allowed steam to escape. The random lattice work on the front of the doors is known in Chinese as a 'cracked ice' pattern and is often seen in larger window panels or dividers. The cabinet has three fixed shelves inside and a small door at the bottom allows access to the lower storage compartment.

Aftercare

Lacquered furniture should need little cleaning other than the regular use of a dry, soft cloth or duster. To remove any stains, use a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid the use of too much water as this will affect the surface. Frequent waxing should not be needed but can be carried out every couple of months using a good quality natural beeswax. Do not use the cheaper silicone furniture sprays as these may affect the finish. Never use any abrasive cleaning products or chemicals.

Products in a natural finish can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth. Use a natural beeswax every few months to protect and nourish the wood.

Do not place hot or wet items directly onto the product surface as this can mark the finish. Clean any spills as soon as possible.

Avoid placing your furniture near a radiator or other heat source as this can lead to the wood drying out and shrinking, causing cracks or splitting. Ideally, leave at least a metre between your furniture and any heat source. Avoid also placing your furniture in strong, direct sunlight as the colour made fade over time.
