A Chinese Antique Shop Sign with Carved Calligraphy from the 19th century with dark brown/black lacquer, calligraphy carved in low relief and iron hardware. Immerse yourself in the rich tapestry of Chinese history with this authentic 19th-century Qing Dynasty period shop sign. Boasting a stunning dark brown/black lacquer that captures the timeless aesthetic of ancient China, this horizontal rectangular sign is a marriage of art and antiquity that promises to be the crown jewel of your collection.
With dimensions that beckon admiration, the focal point of this sign is the meticulously carved calligraphy in low relief. The characters, a testament to the delicate hands of craftsmen of yore, possess an elegance that tells stories beyond words, connecting you with the distant past. The lines of the calligraphy subtly emerge from the dark background, as if whispering secrets of a time gone by.
Accentuating the sign’s use is the original iron hardware that not only provides a discreet contrast to the dark lacquer but also harks back to its utilitarian roots. These iron fixtures lend an air of authenticity and speak volumes of the sign's journey through time.
Whether mounted as a majestic centerpiece in your living room or displayed with reverence in a library or study, this shop sign is more than a decorative piece; it's a fragment of history captured in wood and lacquer. The blend of dark tones and resplendent calligraphy creates an aura of mystique and allure that is unparalleled
