QUOTE (ANTIKASIA)





The carpenter master to his apprentice: " Put all your heart in your work.
If you do a beautiful piece of furniture, it will become antique. On the contrary, if it is poorly done, it will become old".



Korean two unit stacked chest. Red lacquer on wood,
Yellow brass fittings. Original condition.
Mid 19th century. Korea.

This chest has not lost its original beauty. It must have been build by an artist.
