The earliest furniture found is from the Han Dynasty (206BC - 220AD) forms including low tables and stands, during this period nomadic tribes came from the west and introduced them to a folding stool, moving up a few hundred years to the song Dynasty (960- 1279AD) ad furniture was getting quite popular with the wealthy, and becoming produced in larger quantities this is where the basics for structural design and techniques started. In my opinion the Ming period (1368-1644AD)is the golden age for Chinese furniture, cabinet work had got finer and with more precision, the use of early exotic timber and very simple clean look to the furniture. In the Qing dynasty(1644-1911) Cabinetmakers were all over china producing most of the Antique furniture that you will see around today. Read More
★★★★★Stephen ChambersHandsome sideboard bought in mid December, and delivered to Germany 10 days later (despite chaos at Dover). The sellers made this a neat straightforward transaction, and wrapped it, for the journey, with TLC.

★★★★★Rob WilliamsWe bought two club chairs from Toby and Katie. The chairs are great and good value, and they were very reliable and organised sellers. However the best thing was that - without being asked - they offered for us to check the condition of the chairs when they were delivered and to take them back if we were not happy. This was incredibly fair. In the end the chairs were exactly as described.
