There are many differences between Qing Dynasty furniture and Ming Dynasty furniture. First of all, the origin of the Qing Dynasty furniture is very clear. The important furniture producing areas in the Qing Dynasty were Guangzhou and Suzhou, Guangzhou called “Guangdu” and Suzhou called “Su”. In addition, Shanxi is doing “Jin Dong”, and Beijing is doing “Jing Ding”, all named after the region. The furniture in each area has its own characteristics. For example, the furniture is widely used, and the typical feature is to spare no expense. Because Guangzhou is a port city, wood is the first to get. Guangzhou is expensive and the materials are relatively cheap, so it is not a pity. Su made furniture through the mainland, the material is expensive, but the labor is relatively cheap. Therefore, Su does not hesitate to make furniture, and work to make up for the defects of less material. For example, a chair, a large number of chairs with rattan drawers, are made of Su; if it is widely used, it is directly placed on a wooden board because it is not short of material. The Suzhou artisans used to work in the past. There was no whole piece of wood on the ground except for sawdust. All the wood must be used, very particular.

By comparing the furniture of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, we can see that the Ming Dynasty has a heavy structure and less decoration. Its decoration is the finishing touch; the Qing Dynasty is decorated with light structure and elegant overall. Although there were also carved furniture in the Ming Dynasty, it was very rare.

From the performance of the details, the Ming Dynasty pays attention to subtle changes, such as a small line angle. If you don't know furniture well, you can't see it. It is a bit like a Beijing opera, a sleeve, a fly, it is a very meticulous feeling. In the Qing Dynasty, the first impact was emphasized, and you will be attracted to you when you play. The overall feeling is different in the two eras.

The Qing Dynasty was a dynasty that had been carefully studied. Emperor Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong are the emperors who are eager to learn. They are desperately trying to learn Chinese culture and try to rule the country with the essence of Chinese culture. Therefore, in the Qing Dynasty furniture, it has always pursued Han culture, not Manchu culture.

The Ming Dynasty furniture is simple and versatile, and the Qing Dynasty furniture is dominated by luxury, which is the difference in their essence. Make a simple judgment on the general furniture, the resolution is clear and clear, you can look for it from the big feeling.
