拍品資料及來源

「各件分拆,造型仍不失雅致獨特!」

此具翹頭案活榫結構,可開可合,頗特殊。傳世明式家具實例採用活榫結構的,北京中國國家博物館與美國明尼亞波里斯博物館各存一例,都與現例十分相似。二例分別見於 Robert D. Jacobsen 及 Nicholas Grindley,《Classical Chinese Furniture in the Minneapolis Institute of Arts》,明尼阿波利斯,1999年,頁127,以及《簡約.華美:明清家具精粹》,中國國家博物館,北京,2007年,頁70-71。這類翹頭案能簡易拆卸成為數件構件,方便由作坊運送到用家才裝組,如同架子床上部構件均可拆,一般適宜於製作較大較重的家具。
