Rare Chinese LARGE HEAVY wood Stand Qing earlier label BATS
This is a lovely LARGE old and unusual Chinese wooden stand as shown.
I am not sure what the wood is but it is heavy, dense and has a wonderful deep red colour which I have tried to capture in the photographs provided.
It could be some type of cherry wood or mahogany but I am not sure.
There is some wonderful detailing such as the unusual shape feet/legs which appear to look like bats that are found on old Chinese ceramics.
The wood is HEAVY and sturdy, being designed to be used as a stand for a LARGE bowl or jar.
There is an old printed collector’s label on the bottom as shown with a dynasty or reign mark and collection reference number written in pen.
The vase or bowl must have been a very rare and valuable piece!
In very good, solid and undamaged condition as shown with just some minor marks.
I will be listing some other Chinese wood stands this week so please have a look at my other items: always willing to combine shipping/postage.
This wonderful stand measures: 55mm TALL x 210mm DIAMETER
It weighs just slightly under 900g!
Please have a look at my other rare and unusual antiques!
Shipping outside Europe will be £25.
