Description

Highly valued Chinese Zitan wood carved unto a hexagonal Buddha temple house, erected on comforting platform base, surrounded by six cylindrical straight pillars supporting the side walls with numerous openings to the front, and open-work carved rails on platform and roof. Decorated in reliefs of scrolling rococo foliate interspersed the BaJiXiang, the Eight Buddhist emblems, and many auspicious symbols. The Zitan wood display smooth lustrous dense hardwood with dark purple-brown patina and feathery fine grain. The roof crowned with hexagonal bud finials. The interior opening covered in red silk. Dimensions: 21" Height x 13" Width LOT NOTES: Zitan is an extremely dense wood; It is a member of the rosewood family and is botanically classified in the Pterocarpus genus. The wood is blackish-purple to blackish-red in color, and its fibers are laden with deep red pigments which have been used for dye since ancient times. Zitan, a slow-growing rosewood evergreen tree, provides wood in very limited supply. This rare Zitan wood was used to make furniture in China as early as the third century. The slow growth of the tree leads to very small, fine grains that make the wood ideal for detailed carving techniques. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the demand for Zitan furniture grew out of control and became closely monitored under the reign of Emperor Qianlong. In 300 years, a Zitan tree only grows to be about 30 feet tall and 10 inches wide. Zitan is such a dense and heavy wood that it is actually incapable of floating in the water
