AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Antique wall-mounted wall guard, letter rack, or magazine rack made of papier-mordé and black lacquered wood, decorated with oriental motifs in the japonisme style or Asian influence (possibly from the Napoléon III era, late 19th or early 20th century).
It is made of papier-mâché (historically also known as beaten card or carton bouilli), a technique very popular in Europe during the 19th century for creating lightweight yet sturdy decorative objects. It is finished with a glossy black lacquer that imitates Oriental lacquers.
Dimensions - H 26.5 x W 23.5 x L 5.5 cm.
Chinoiserie style, an Western aesthetic movement fascinated with Asian art. It features detailed polychrome scenes in gold, green and reddish tones depicting traditional vessels with an oriental look (dragon boats), figures in period costumes, and coastal landscapes.
