We source hand-picked antique furniture with rich Chinese heritage
Julia and Rob, who own Shack in Sydney together with Helena, our stylist, hand select pieces during their travels in China. We aim to pick the finest oriental furniture for our Sydney-based customers.
In order to preserve the original appearance and condition, tenon and mortise techniques are employed in the repair of all pieces, paint is used to maintain its simplicity, and stains which developed during the process of use are removed.
We restore all of our pieces by hand in order to be precise. We pay attention to the way in which the original colour has been preserved and employ special techniques to restore its original brightness. Then, we apply a clear coat of lacquer to the surface. There is a special skill in retaining the gracefulness of the piece and we aim to pay respect to every item. Delicately carved, the motifs are symbolic of beliefs of an earlier time – these aspirations continue to resonate in today’s world.
