Qing Furniture
QING STYLE
The last imperial dynasty from 1644 to 1912 was a time of change in China, beginning with the invasion by Manchurian forces that ended the Ming dynasty and established the Shunzhi Emperor. The expansion of exportation and trade that had bolstered the arts during the Ming era continued, as Qing dynasty furniture involved the same attention to craftsmanship with expert construction techniques in hardwood pieces that were assembled with mortise and tenon joints rather than nails or glue. Together, these eras comprise a golden age of Chinese furniture design.
Ming-style furniture is simple and elegant with clean lines. Chairs of the period and other Ming furniture made an impression on Scandinavian modernist Hans Wegner and his streamlined seating, for example. Whereas Qing-style furniture is elaborate, with an increasing influence from the West leading to lavish carving inspired by the European Baroque and Rococo styles. And while many of the forms that define examples of the latter are common within classical Chinese furniture, such as curving and folding chairs as well as large screens, Qing designs are laden with ornamentation. Frequently, the carved motifs and inlaid designs in mother-of-pearl were auspicious, such as peonies for wealth or dragons for luck. Bats were symbols of happiness in the design of Qing furniture, with one of the characters in the word for bat, bianfu, being a homophone for fu, or “fortune.”
While several types of wood were used in the construction of Qing beds, tables, storage pieces and seating, today’s collectors know that the most prized were the rare rosewoods zitan and huanghuali. They were both sourced from Hainan, China’s largest island, and are marked by a rich luster that occurs naturally, without the application of lacquer or other decorative materials. Many of the most popular woods were imported from southeast Asia, adding to their value. Red sandalwood was also sought after for its durability and connection with Chinese medicine, with some chairs being made for health benefits.

Finest Chinese Porcelain Falangcai Enamel Plate Birds Blossoms Republic ROC 20c
Located in Richmond, CA
Presenting an exceptional Chinese Falangcai enamel plate, a tour de force of ceramic artistry that seamlessly blends the intricate detailing of Fencai with the vibrant hues of Falangcai enameling. This plate is a sublime example of the "Fan Qiang" (over wall) technique, a masterful application that allows the depicted scene to transcend the back of the plate and extend into its front, creating a visually immersive experience.
The focal point of this plate is a meticulously rendered vibrant garden scene, where two birds are perched in a blossoming tree. The birds, captured in a moment of serene interaction, are set against a backdrop of blossoming branches, adding layers of symbolism and aesthetic appeal. The garden setting further enhances the naturalistic theme, imbuing the piece with a sense of tranquility and harmony.
The plate is finely detailed, employing a combination of Fencai and Falangcai enameling techniques to achieve a rich, multi-layered visual effect. The colors are vibrant yet balanced, capturing the essence of the scene with a remarkable degree of realism.
Adding to its historical and collectible value is an apocryphal six-character vertical mark "Da Qing Yong Zheng...
