The present folding chair is notable for its majestic proportions and the dynamic sweep of the rounded crestrail that terminates in bold, confident outswept hooks. Offered in the Important Chinese Ceramics and Works of Art sale during Asian Art Week, the chair is an exceptional example of the subtle grace and technical genius of Ming-dynasty huanghuali furniture.
Though folding horseshoe-back armchairs are seen in Ming-dynasty woodblock prints and in Song-dynasty paintings as the seat for emperors, there are only a limited number of surviving examples dating to 17th century. Of what furniture remains from the Ming period, the folding horseshoe-back armchair is the rarest.
See this work on view starting from 17-22 March, on view during Asian Art Week.
