An original pair of antique Chinese doors made of elm wood with a simple yet imposing design that reflect traditional Chinese ancient architecture. This pair of antique doors was originally painted in rich, vibrant colors, and adorned with bronze or iron hardware, such as door knockers and handles. Today since they have been exposed to the elements for a long time the color has washed away, and the doors feature a lovely aged semi-oxidized finish. Antique courtyard doors are typically tall and narrow and may have several panels that can be opened and closed to reveal the room beyond. The frames are generally thick and sturdy, and the doors themselves are heavy and solid. They are often used in traditional Chinese architecture and are considered to be works of art, not just functional items.
