Subject:Need info on dragon throne chair
Posted By: Carl Wed, Feb 22, 2023 IP: 166.205.101.43
I was fortunate to come across this beautiful dragon throne chair. By what I can find it’s from the Qing Dynasty by the design. If anyone knows more about this piece any information would be greatly appreciated.

This isn't Chinese, but Japanese.

The dragons are definitely Japanese in style and the back of the chair is the shape of a Shinto shrine. It is a nice piece but definitely has a specific buyer and I would price it towards that buyer. Hope that helps on your search!
