Description

The arts and crafts of the second half of China’s Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) are represented, with a brief nod to the early 20th century and the Art Deco influence in Chinese design.

Included are the tools of the scholar, ancestor paintings, and other new categories, in addition to Chinese furniture, basketry, and cabinetry.

Newly fashionable Chinese furnishings and accessories from the 18th and 19th centuries are presented in nearly 600 full color photographs.

Each piece is clearly described and set in its historical context.

While appreciating the beauty of furniture designs of the late Qing dynasty, readers will be enriched by photographs of their places in ancient settings as well as in contemporary household interiors.

Designers and decorators will be surprised to see how well these antique forms blend with and enhance contemporary decor.

Values are also included.
