Fine wood, woven material. China, Qing dynasty (1644 - 1912)

躺椅

An extendible lounge chair with a real "architecture" to it and which can be used as a decorative object with a special appearance. The backrest is tilted at an angle of 45°, slightly curved and has a roll on its upper end. The arm-rests on the sides have a decorative bar pattern. The footrest can be pulled out and is also decorated with a pattern composed of arranged bars. What's special here, however, is that it resembles a stylized version of the Chinese character for "double fortune", shuang xi, as does the pattern below the arm rests. The sitting surface and headrest are made of woven material. On the whole, good, well-kept condition.
