Chinese furniture

Myanmar Antique’s Chinese furniture are all dated to the 19th and early 20th Centuries and they are without  exception crafted in elm. Elm is, apart from exceptional beautiful, also very durable and the added ‘’advantage’’ is that elm is relatively light. They are crafted on the basis of century old principles i.e. without nails, screws and glue, but with multiple layers of lacquer and wax. The vast majority of Chinese furniture has served functional needs whilst the timeless alter tables were used also to display owners treasured artifacts. Without exception all antique furniture display signs of surface wear which fortunately have left a natural, but highly attractive smooth and subdued patina. Due to their fundamental simplicity and color mixture, Chinese furniture will blend in and add an extra dimension to the interior of any modern home. 

It is rare to find a piece of Chinese furniture with original locks and hinges and a close look will also reveal extensive restoration in form of newly applied lacquer and replacement of missing or damaged wood.
