    Description

    19th century Chinese red lacquered wedding
    basket to store and carry auspicious fruits and foods for weddings
    Red lacquer symbolizes good luck and great fortune. All wood panels were hand cut and held in tension by brass loops, an ingenious way of basket making in southern China. Elegant curved handle completes the look. From Ning Bo province
    Chinese lacquer is made from sap that oozes from a variety of trees in the sumac family.
    An absolutely stunning antique wedding basket, the lacquer is beautiful and vibrant.
