Rare 16-17th century bench
Rare 16-17th century bench in elm with hand carved details.
Original condition with a great patina.
Shanxi Province, China.
Benches like this were seen in front of Chinese temples for people to sit and rest or used to watch Chinese opera performances. The bench shown here with the elaborated carvings were probably used in a temple, which was usually more decorated, thus complement better with the style of this bench.
