#Chinoiserie
Here's my unpopular theory: the insatiable British demand for chinoiserie, porcelain, and tea alone caused a massive trade imbalance and "profoundly" altered British culture, society, economy and eventually led to the opium wars. What's coming next? 🤷🏻‍♂️

A #poem in two parts



i.

Barehanded potter turned
hard paste to fantasy.
A sculpted porcelain urn
in rich chinoiserie,

two dragons writhe around
its many colored sides,
with a goddess in gold rays crowned,
this sunburst, splendor’s bride

Joan’s apartment full of Chinoiserie reminds me of my grandmother’s decor. (I inherited a lot of her pieces) #TCMParty

In today's 2nd Misfits class we considered the capaciousness of the term by creating a Miscellany of Misfittery — different species of misfit, from misfit drawers to finicky fruits to night laborers to chinoiserie to carceral media to single-use tools

After three years researching the influence of East Asia on seventeenth-century British culture my targeted ads are serving me modern Chinoiserie/japanning.

OKA is an interior design company heavily inspired by historic interiors. NGL, I do like the side table.

During the height of chinoiserie, French artist Jean Barbault painted himself dressed as a "Chinese Ambassador" for the 1748 Roman Carnival Masquerade.

His remarkable hat was topped by a tiny sitting buddha, wearing the same hat.

I really want to draw a Chinoiserie-style pattern with the Treasures of Ruin, but a white-and-blue color palette feels too bright and tame for them. 🤔

Is the abundance of East Asian lacquers, Indian textiles, and chinoiserie furnishings the product of a woman's taste? Or something else? A joint enterprise between a politically powerful couple in a court marked by colonial/global ambition? I lean towards the latter.

Welcome to #PalacesandGardens, theme #towers featuring the Dragon House in Sanssouci Park, a historic pavilion with a green copper roof and dreamy spire, surrounded by lush greenery. The Drachenhaus is a notable example of chinoiserie architecture, blending European and Chinese design motifs.

Taking a Chinoiserie gouache class at the end of the month, so I thought I’d better buy supplies before the price goes up. (Many if not most art supplies are imported.) OUCH. Lol
