Asian Antiques

Asian antiques like this red armoire are favorites.

Asian Antiques Create Mystery

For the last few hundred years,  wealthy travelers from the West have returned from their trips to the Orient with beautiful Asian antiques. They accented their traditionally furnished homes with unique furniture, beautiful Asian art and some Chinese furniture collected on these trips. It was considered to be a mark of sophistication. 

The East isn’t quite so mysterious these days. Now you can come into Timeless Furnishings and easily select from a treasure trove of these fabulous objects. Although we have some antique reproductions, much of our Asian antiques, furniture, cabinets, Chinese vases and Asian artwork come from Western collectors’ private estates in the Los Angeles area. 

These collectors were connoisseurs of everything from Imperial porcelain and lacquer to Chinese and Thai artwork. Over the years, we’ve acquired Asian antiques, Chinese furniture, floor screens, ceramic bowls, garden seats, painted Chinese fishbowls, Japanese furniture, Thai figurines and rubbings, etc. 

Right now we’re showcasing this beautiful red lacquer armoire. It stands an impressive 7 feet tall and has 2 doors with a removable center divider. There’s loads of storage inside, with 2 interior drawers and extra storage in the bottom. 

We’ve also have a black lacquer Qing style cabinet similar to one recently in Traditional Home magazine. The large display of Asian antiques, Chinese furniture, artwork and accents in our Bakersfield furniture store changes frequently, so visit often.
