Burmese furniture "Quick-Tips"

Burmese furniture Wear - Of course, you will be attracted to an Burmese furniture piece because of the "looks". It is important to keep in mind that antiques are old and bear everyday wear-and-tear. If a piece has been repaired or refurbished, you should be able to determine recent or full restoration of a piece if the piece does not show normal wear and tear. Burmese furniture is used like any other furniture. Pieces that are hundreds of years old should have considerable wear but not major damage.

Burmese furniture Dealers - Know and trust your dealer. People who come to Clipper Trading can see the time and effort the owners put into choosing each piece. Unlike other stores that simply pick pieces for their store from what is imported to the states, Clipper Trading goes the extra mile to shop directly for Burmese furniture and pieces by traveling to China, Tibet, Korea, Vietnam, Burma and other countries. You can trust Clipper Trading to give you any history or age information gathered about specific pieces if that information is available.

Burmese furniture Lacquer - When you are looking at extremely old pieces, chances are the lacquer is not the original lacquer because Burmese furniture can span hundreds of years, even over 1000 years old. The unique structure of Burmese furniture is a marvel in itself with joining structures that contribute to the quality and collectible appeal of each item. Again, it is important to ask what information might be available from Clipper Trading.
