Book excerpt: Connoisseurship of Chinese Furniture, with 800 plates & illustrations, is the most definitive study of Chinese furniture from the Ming through Qing Dynasties available today. The first volume contains six chapters describing the construction, forms, materials used & provenance of the furniture, & shows the authentication of pieces & the identification of later repairs & reproductions. Over 300 diagrams clarify this information for the reader. The second volume includes more than 350 black & white photo plates taken by the author, & 90 detailed line drawings. These provide the most complete record of furniture of this period & include many pieces which have since been lost or destroyed. Representing the culmination of more than 40 years' research by the author, former head of the exhibition department of the Palace Museum in Beijing, this work is unquestionably the most authoritative & factual work on Chinese furniture ever to be published in China or abroad. The first major work in English on this subject by a Chinese scholar, it is an indispensable reference for collectors, furniture makers, historians, connoisseurs & all who appreciate the art of China.

This book was released on 2023-12-22 with total page 727 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chinese classical furniture is esteemed throughout the world for its beauty, functionalism, and influence on contemporary design aesthetics. Sarah Handler's stunningly illustrated volume traces Chinese hardwood furniture from its earliest origins in the Shang dynasty (c. 1500 to c. 1050 B.C.) to the present. She offers a fascinating and poetic view of Chinese furniture as functional sculpture, a fine art alongside the other Chinese arts of calligraphy, architecture, painting, and literature. Handler, a widely respected scholar of Chinese furniture, uses her knowledge of Chinese social, political, and economic history to provide a backdrop for understanding the many nuances of this art form. Drawing on literary and visual evidence from excavated materials, written texts, paintings, prints, and engravings, she discusses how people lived, their notions of hierarchy, and their perceptions of space. Her descriptions of historical developments, such as the shift from mats to chairs, evoke the psychological and sociological ramifications. The invention of a distinctive way to support and contain people and things within the household is one of China's singular contributions, says Handler. With more than three hundred exquisite illustrations, many in color, Handler's comprehensive study reveals "the magical totality of Chinese classical furniture, from its rich surfaces and shrewd proportions down to the austere soul of art that resides in the hardwood interiors." Austere Luminosity recognizes Chinese classical furniture as one of China's premier arts, unique in the furniture traditions of the world.
