Item Description

From 19th century China, the days of the last emperors, comes this stunning grain basket made of bamboo and cane from the province of Shanxi. Handpicked by Andrea McCormick, owner of The Han Horse.

Andrea and Lynde McCormick are among the leading authorities on late Qing Dynasty furniture (1780-1920) and are the authors of two beautiful coffee table books on the subject, one of which, Chinese Country Antiques, is included in this package.

Also included are passes and a private tour for eight at the Peabody Essex Museum, including Ying Yu Tang, the 17th Century Huang family ancestral home, where you will gain a rare perspective on Chinese art, architecture, and culture.
