| | chinoiserie on Encyclopedia.com |
 | | Whole rooms, such as those at Chantilly, were painted with compositions in chinoiserie, and Watteau and other artists brought consummate craftsmanship to the style. | | | In France the Louis XV style gave especial opportunities to chinoiserie, as it blended well with the established rococo. | | | Chinese objects, particularly fine wallpapers, played an important role in the adornment of rooms, and especially in Philadelphia the style had a pronounced effect upon design. |

| | Meissen Chinoiserie & Harbour Scenes |
| | Especially with regard to the chinoiseries, several painters at the factory were taught or ordered to work in Höroldt's style, and some also specialised in certain phases of decoration. | | | Both the chinoiseries and harbour scenes reflect a frame of mind of Westerners during the 18th - century: the peculiar and overwhelming fascination for the far - off, the exotic, the Asian. | | | At first glance, the two sides of the scene seem to be mutually exclusive, heightened by the fact that the harbour scene is painted in muted, pastel colours, while the chinoiserie has bright, strong colours. |

| | Orient-ing Fashion |
| | The West is equivalent to modernization and action whereas the "Orient" is characterized by timelessness, and thus static, primitiveness. | | | This theme of supersedence is most obvious in the magazine commentary that accompanies the chinoiserie photographs. | | | By examining the numerous magazine pages devoted to chinoiserie, and their photographs and magazine copy, one can glean a sense of the irony that Bhabha implies as inherent in colonial mimicry. |

| | Limoges Porcelain Boxes > Chinoiserie 3 |
| | (Chippendale furniture is based on Chinoiserie and so are most lacquered furniture designs from Europe. | | | Chinoiserie, when first it came into being, in the early days of porcelain making, was enormously fashionable and the exotic character of the designs fascinated people. | | | Often it is called Japanning.) There is a delicacy to it that seems to heighten when it is translated into porcelain perhaps more than any other medium. |

| | From the (The period of European history at the close of the Middle Ages and the rise of the modern world; a cultural rebirth from the 14th through the middle of the 17th centuries) Renaissance to the eighteenth century Western designers attempted to imitate the technical sophistication of Chinese ceramics with only partial success. | | | But in the true Chinoiserie décor fairyland, mandarins lived in fanciful mountainous landscapes with cobweb bridges, carried flower parasols, lolled in flimsy bamboo pavilions haunted by dragons and phoenixes, while monkeys swung from scrolling borders. | | | Not every adaptation of Chinese design principles falls within mainstream "chinoiserie." Chinoiserie media included "japanned" ware imitations of lacquer and painted tin (tôle) ware that imitated japanning, early painted wallpapers in sheets, and ceramic figurines and table ornaments. |
