A 19th-century Anglo-Chinese black pappier mache quartetto of inter sliding side tables. The tops decorated with oriental scenes. On ring turned spindle supports and scroll sledge feet. 56 cm wide x 40 cm deep x 70 cm highCondition report: The tops have all sunken to some extent see images with a ruler to show the extent of each sag/slumpThese tables were never sturdy even when new but these could do with the glue joints re-doing/ firming up, Some of the legs are a little bare of polish and the whole thing would benefit from a little bit of attention The surface of the lacquer tops is, of course, crazed as is to be expected.The only little bit of damage in real terms other than wear and tear loose joints etc is a small crack on one of the sledge feet terminating from one of the spindle socketsTo sum up these tables are a little bit wobbly and could do with a little care for the ageing glue the main problem being the sag/dip to the tops, although I must say these dips don't stop the tables intersliding as they should.See the images I have taken to illustrate the issues I have mentionedI

Provenance: Acquired by Henry Joseph Hunt, Esq. in Shanghai between 1860-1880, Tea Merchant Agent for Jardine and Matheson,and thence by descentThese two Dragon Chairs were acquired by Henry Joseph Hunt ( 1837-1918), who travelled out to China from Bristol in 1865, living in Shanghai from 1865-67 where he was a commercial agent for Jardine Matheson. He later moved to Japan where he built up a flourishing import/export business, trading principally in tea, retiring to Camberley in England. He amassed a sizeable collection of oriental antiques, including lacquered furniture and netsukes. He was a close friend of Rudyard Kipling who stayed with him in Japan and two families corresponded for many years. Their letters have recently been donated to the Kipling Society. His residence in Nagasaki - The Glover Mansion is now a museum, an important surviving example of a Western-style residence built for the foreign merchant community. The two chairs probably formed part of the original furnishings during his residency.
