5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, high quality piece on Chinese furniture, May 28, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Classic Chinese Furniture of the Qing Dynasty (Hardcover)
I purchased this book to be used as a reference for woodworking. I found the book to be of the highest quality. The contents are roughly 300 pages, most containing pictures of furniture of the Qing Dynasty (about 1600 to about 1900) This is the finest reference on this topic I have found. Though not cheap, the photography is excellent and much detail is visible in the furniture featured. I believe the book was written with antique collectors in mind but furniture makers interested in the beginnings of the Green brothers Arts and Crafts will find it irreplaceable.
