A PAIR OF IMPORTANT AND EXTREMELY RARE HUANGHUALI YOKE-BACK ARMCHAIRS, SICHUTOUGUANMAOYI
17TH CENTURY
The yoke-back armchairs are constructed of fine huanghuali, each ‘official’s hat’ toprail with strongly swept-back ends supported on round corner posts which continue through to the back legs. The well matched backsplats are flanked at the sides by openwork ruyi-scroll flanges, pierced and exquisitely carved in deep and layered technique from both sides with a ruyi-shaped cartouche enclosing auspicious emblems surrounding a lion on one and a spotted deer on the other. The out-scrolled arms supported on sinuous tapering stiles and curved front posts with beaded cloud spandrels continue through the rectangular frame of the soft mat seat to form the front legs, which joined in front by beaded scrolling aprons and long flange spandrels carved with dragons, lotus buds, ruyi and clouds, with similarly carved aprons and spandrels on all four sides, and with a shaped footrest and stepped stretchers, each with a curvilinear apron carved with dragon heads or leafy tendrils .
37 in. (119.4 cm.) high, 25 1/2 in. (64.7 cm.) wide, 19 in. (48.2 cm.) deep
