Gansu, circa 1890
Produced to store grain, this colourful sideboard is a lovely example of the painted furniture traditional particularly to the eastern part of China’s Gansu province. Its vibrant red doors, with paintings picked out against a cream background, stand out against the black outer frames in what are traditional colours of the region. Constructed from sturdy pine or poplar wood, the cabinet dates back to the late nineteenth century and has been repurposed into a versatile dining sideboard or storage unit. Originally, the front panels were fixed and the unit was accessed through removable wooden boards on top. These have since been sealed and the front panels transformed into doors to create a more practical storage cabinet. Removable shelves have also been added inside for convenience.
The painted sections on the doors depict vases of flowers and other curios against a cream background. This traditional design was often used to showcase the owner’s wealth and status. The lower panels are intricately carved and finished in blue, adding an elegant touch to the overall design. The sideboard’s original finish is still largely intact, though worn in parts particularly around the feet as evidence of it’s age and years of use.

Aftercare
Lacquered furniture should need little cleaning other than the regular use of a dry, soft cloth or duster. To remove any stains, use a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid the use of too much water as this will affect the surface. Frequent waxing should not be needed but can be carried out every couple of months using a good quality natural beeswax. Do not use the cheaper silicone furniture sprays as these may affect the finish. Never use any abrasive cleaning products or chemicals.
Products in a natural finish can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth. Use a natural beeswax every few months to protect and nourish the wood.
Do not place hot or wet items directly onto the product surface as this can mark the finish. Clean any spills as soon as possible.
Avoid placing your furniture near a radiator or other heat source as this can lead to the wood drying out and shrinking, causing cracks or splitting. Ideally, leave at least a metre between your furniture and any heat source. Avoid also placing your furniture in strong, direct sunlight as the colour may fade over time.
