Antique Chinese Qing Dynasty Hand Built Wooden Lattice Cabinet Door 11"X 25"
This is an antique Chinese Qing Dynasty (c. 1800's) wooden door from a cabinet. It is constructed with mortise and tenon joinery. The lattice work is very intricately pieced together and tightly fit. The whole piece is most likely made from the yumu tree (Northern elm). You can see in the last picture how this door would have looked in a complete cabinet (an item available in our store but not included in this listing). These are often displayed as a solitary pieces of art or sculpture or can be incorporated into larger displays.
This measures 25" tall (without the "hinge") by 11" wide by 1" thick (63.5 x 28 x 2.5 cm). Having been well loved for well over a centuries, with exception of past signs of use, overall it remains in fine antique condition.
