This work was created during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) (1736-95). During the peak of the Qing Dynasty, luxury goods became more popular and affordable for both merchants and non official literati. The growing urban population has encouraged the consumption of luxury goods and local handicrafts. This ivory carved and painted piece imitates small garden chairs, showcasing the exquisite skills of the talented craftsmen of the Qing Dynasty, as well as the craftsmanship of embroidering character patterns. This craftsmanship combines embroidery and furniture making, showcasing the unique charm of traditional Chinese handicrafts. This pedestal is currently housed in the Cleveland Museum of Art.
