Description from the seller
Large Chinese hexagonal "Ice Lantern" - Hand-carved hardwood & reverse glass paintings - Second half of the 20th century
Description:
Offered is a beautiful and imposing Chinese hexagonal lantern, commonly referred to as an "ice lantern."
This richly decorated object is a magnificent example of traditional Chinese decorative art and craftsmanship.
The lantern is carved from a dark hardwood (likely rosewood or mahogany), entirely by hand. The corners of the lantern are adorned with detailed, openwork dragon sculptures and geometric patterns.
The six sides feature glass panels that have been reverse-painted on the back.
The paintings depict classic Chinese scenes, including expansive mountain landscapes, floral motifs, and traditional figures, executed in a refined color palette.
Details:
Material: Hardwood (rosewood), Glass.
Decoration: Hand-carved woodwork with dragons, hand-painted glass.
Period: Second half of the 20th century (vintage).
Condition: In very good condition with minimal signs of aging consistent with age.
One of the small glass panels is missing and has been replaced with a similar milk glass (unadorned) and there is a small chipped piece of wood on the side.
None of this is conspicuous or disruptive and is not visible when the lamp is hung or placed in a corner.
Can be used as an atmospheric pendant light or as an exclusive decorative piece.
