The intricate Chinese furniture apron was originally attached to an ancient furniture piece now-lost. This piece likely dates to the Ming dynasty (1368 - 1644). At its center is a depiction of a bat, a traditional good luck symbol in China. The panel is decorated with detailed carvings of dragons and additional bats. It's constructed from northern elm 榆木 (yumu) and dates to at least the 17^th century.

Supplied with hangers.
