Chinoiserie
Updated Oct 31, 2007
During the late 17th century French artists started to incorporate Chinese motifs like pagodas, landscapes, rivers and fretwork into their designs. The word 'chinoiserie' was conceptualized to describe this new trend of Chinese-style decoration on lacquered furniture and other decorative items. Still popular today, chinoiserie pieces can add an eccentric and wordly flair to even the most modern home.
