As the vibrant festivities of Chinese New Year unfold, Nicholas Wells Antiques invites you to immerse yourself in the rich tapestry of tradition and history that this auspicious occasion represents. Chinese New Year, also known as Lunar New Year or Spring Festival, marks the beginning of the lunar calendar and is celebrated with great enthusiasm across China and in Chinese communities around the world.
This year, as we welcome the Year of the Dragon, a symbol of power, strength, and good luck in Chinese culture, Nicholas Wells Antiques showcases a curated collection of Chinese antiques that embody the spirit and artistry of centuries-old traditions. Each piece tells a story of its own, offering a glimpse into the past and a connection to the rituals and celebrations that have shaped Chinese culture.
Chinese New Year is a time of renewal, where families come together to celebrate and prepare for the coming year. It is a festival rich in customs and rituals, from the cleaning of homes to sweep away bad fortune and make way for good luck, to the lighting of fireworks to ward off evil spirits. The celebration is also marked by the giving of red envelopes, or ‘hongbao’, filled with money, symbolizing good wishes and luck for the year ahead.
At Nicholas Wells Antiques, we are proud to present a selection of Chinese antiques that reflect the beauty and depth of Chinese craftsmanship. From exquisite porcelain vases adorned with intricate designs to beautifully carved jade figurines that symbolize good fortune and protection, each piece offers a unique insight into the artistic traditions of China.
Our collection also features antique furniture that showcases the skillful joinery and elegant forms of Chinese woodworking, as well as decorative screens and paintings that depict scenes of ancient folklore and natural beauty. These pieces not only enhance the aesthetic of any space but also serve as a meaningful connection to the cultural heritage of China.
