Bantamwork
Bantamwork in 18th century England signified a particular style of export lacquerware which was cut into a layer of gesso and then lacquered in colors. ==History==
By the mid-17th century, trade with China and Japan had flourished in Europe. Oriental curiosities included lacquered cabinets and screens. The beautiful lacquer and ornamentation were highly prized. One of many Chinese lacquer was known as "Coromandel" or "bantomwork". It is assumed that it is named after Bantam in Java, which used to play an important part in the export of oriental crafts to Europe. 〔Oxford English Dictionary〕
