Furniture collection trends

----- Furniture collection trends

 

In recent years, antique furniture has received increasing attention from people. Most of the old furniture that pays attention to carving and modeling often blends the long-lasting rhyme and the modern aesthetic pursuit of simplicity. Although it is slightly outdated in some aspects, its cultural connotation and artistic value are also deeply engraved in the words "old" and "Old". Its "old" is exquisite and deep, and the "old" is elegant and simple. Especially the traditional Chinese furniture, with its solemn and atmospheric style, shakes off the dust of history and brings a chic ancient style to modern life. More and more people hope to "return to the truth" by "returning to ancient times". The continuous heating of traditional furniture in the collection industry and auction market has also strengthened the society's extensive attention to antique furniture. Antique furniture set off a booming business wave.


This "ancient" wind is turbulent, antique, as the name implies, imitation of ancient people and antiquities, which can be divided into two types: one highlights "imitation", mainly imitating the style and craft of traditional furniture; the other emphasizes "ancient" , Refers to deliberately preserved or artificially worn to show the traces of furniture after years of precipitation. The price of antique furniture can be high or low, it is a new product that is basically made according to the traditional furniture style and pursues the retro trend. There are two kinds of specific practices: one is to refer to the catalog of traditional furniture and make replicas in strict accordance with the above instructions; the other is to emphasize the feeling of traditional style and recreate the modern function. Antique furniture, because it imitates the typical personality and style, reflects the nationality and regionality of the original. Although it is a new product, its excellent works also have high artistic value and economic value.


To make old, that is, to make old furniture, mostly in the form of "old materials and new work" or "parts reorganization", etc., for the old furniture that has lost its complete use function, through transformation, addition and subtraction are made to make it look new. For example, the old pane is combined with an old-fashioned drawer table. The old pane is like a bookshelf standing on the table. Beautiful pictures or family photos can be posted in the lattice, and several vine plants can also be hung. The scenery that lifts your eyes when you are tired of reading, which creates a wonderfully interesting desk. A more creative approach is to use old furniture as a pure visual image, sculpting and reorganizing it into an ornament in the space.


The processing, improvement and imitation of many modern and old furniture in modern times also follow the veins of classical furniture in the Ming and Qing dynasties. Generally speaking, the Ming-style furniture is refined and the smooth lines form a bright and simple style; the Qing-style furniture is exquisitely decorated, and the complex lines show the solemn charm of Yongrong. In addition to aesthetics, the various carvings and ornaments of traditional Chinese furniture also contain all kinds of beautiful allusions. The values ​​from the top officials and nobles to the people in the city are implicitly reflected in vivid artistic ideas.


Traditional Chinese furniture combines intelligence and skill, with diverse styles, exquisite materials and exquisite workmanship, reflecting the unique temperament of Chinese civilization. Looking back on history, as our country's way of living has changed from sitting on the floor to sitting on its feet, the variety and form of traditional furniture have also changed and increased and decreased, and it has become quite complete by the Southern Song Dynasty. The traditional furniture with increasingly exquisite craftsmanship has been refined in the Ming Dynasty and shines in the Qing Dynasty. In the Ming Dynasty, the “Quality Supervisor” and the Qing Dynasty ’s “Building Office” used to gather precious wood from all over the world. They brought together master craftsmen from north and south to develop furniture and become representatives of traditional furniture in China.


Today's antique furniture market is mostly expanded in the form of "borrowing the ancients", "antiques" and "making the ancients", each with its own characteristics and loved by everyone.
Borrowing ancient refers to directing old furniture out of the collection cabinet to the people's home. This kind of "used for the present" is more suitable for furniture products with high integrity and use value and artistic value. Old furniture also has folk and palace points. Judging from the current furniture market, many common folk antique furniture are comparable to the prices of solid wood furniture in stores. Even because of the market hype, some modern antique furniture prices far exceed old furniture. Collecting and using old furniture is not just nostalgia, it is more an appreciation of culture. Therefore, many people who love traditional culture will choose the old furniture display home within the budget, which not only adds the simplicity of the interior, but also chats about the origin and history of old furniture after tea and dinner.


No matter what kind of old furniture, after all, it is the style that has become the "past tense". Pushing the "old" things out of the "new" trend should be paid attention to.
In terms of production, some old furniture manufactures today do not pay enough attention to design. In terms of use, people's cognition and application of furniture culture is often a bit of a trick. Respecting the ancients is not a pile of pure old elements. Through cognition of traditional culture, we should create a home environment suitable for the modern people's aesthetic style and life needs. Specifically, "borrow the ancients" should pay attention to the style, and the furniture style should be unified with the environment. For example, the clean and simple indoor environment and the Ming-style furniture will complement each other. The collocation and overall style of furniture should also focus on harmony and unity, and it is not appropriate to pile up Ming and Qing style furniture randomly; "antique" should respect the realm, imitating both form and spirit, rather than blindly imitating traditional styles, so as to die; We should pursue individuality, follow the ancient style, and boldly innovate. In short, "ancient" must be refined on the basis of "beauty", and a strong nostalgic sentiment must not be used to cover up the serious shortcomings of the innovations inherited by the old furniture. The contemporary Chinese furniture industry cannot be merely an ancient style.


How is the word "increasing" so popular? The popularity of old furniture has caused its prices to rise. Although the domestic market is still in the development stage compared with the hotness of European classical furniture in foreign markets, Chinese antique furniture has already broken through the original use value and gradually penetrated into the field of collection and investment. Most of the Ming and Qing furniture is well-selected and relatively large in collection value. It is also the main force in the furniture collection industry. Judging from the situation in the past five years, the investment growth rate of domestic antique furniture has reached nearly 20% per year. The investment value of some surviving traditional furniture has even increased at an annual growth rate of 30%, which has been sought after by many collectors. Some antique furniture companies and collectors acquired traditional furniture with exquisite workmanship, unique styles and superior materials purchased from Shanxi, Henan and other places at low prices a few years ago. Today, the market value has reached tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of yuan. The price of palace furniture that has flowed into the private sector is constantly rising, tens of millions.

The new popularity of old furniture has promoted the modern people's concept of home improvement.
Renovating old furniture, in addition to cultural significance, is also turning waste into treasure and being creative, while saving the cost of home improvement and making a considerable contribution to environmental protection. For the transformation of large pieces of furniture, you can choose a reliable furniture company to make suggestions, and small pieces of furniture can be modified by yourself. Imagine that a furniture showroom that the whole family has remodeled has added a touch of humanity that is not available in ready-made products! Use your brains and your hands to make outdated old tables and cabinets, dusty windows and beams glow with new brilliance, the continuation of the life of old furniture brings a different kind of life experience, which should become an environmentally friendly concept and low An important way to implement a carbon lifestyle.


This "increasing" tide has caused a lot of problems, and the first to bear the brunt is "counterfeiting". Some unscrupulous merchants will sell realistic antique furniture at high prices of real ancient traditional furniture. Those who use modern physical and chemical methods, spraying, corrosion and other methods, use artificial board parts instead of solid wood materials, and sub-filled fake antiques have caused many collectors and consumers to suffer.


In the collection of old furniture, there is also a tendency to overweight materials, craftsmanship, light use and aesthetics. In terms of materials, due to the shortage of the market after the great popularity, the superior wood is already in short supply. The rapid increase in the price of imported raw materials and the increasing cost of transportation and processing have made it difficult to reverse the trend of soaring antique furniture prices. Nowadays, the hot rosewood, huanghuali, red rosewood and other timbers have seen a particularly rapid price increase. Many collectors blindly followed suit and are willing to spend thousands of dollars to buy one piece, but not all rosewood and huanghuali furniture are fine products. Especially the "Redwood fever" makes domestic mahogany furniture factories like fur. Unfortunately, rough and vulgar furniture abounds, but many people are difficult to distinguish between good and bad. In terms of craftsmanship, some collectors only pursue complicated carvings and exquisite shapes. They wish that a piece of furniture can incorporate thousands of craftsmanship and blossom everywhere, but ignore the practical function and aesthetics of the furniture. For example, in the eyes of some collectors, the elegant and flexible lines of some Ming-style furniture are no match for the fine and complicated decorative crafts such as stitches, buckets, carvings, and inlays. The collection concept is upside down.


Use and collection, use is the first; use and aesthetics, use is the first; aesthetics and collection, are enough after use. Therefore, the principle of frugality, from ancient times to the present, should be the core concept that furniture production, use, and collection should pay attention to. The traditional Ming-style furniture is more rigorous and refined in shape, and more of the elegant and refined gentleman style that is respected by literati. The furniture of the Qing Dynasty was not all carved without cost or man-hours. Therefore, the aesthetic philosophy that likes to be prosperous and avoid simple elements, in addition to magnificence and dignity, has added a calm and solemn emperor. No matter whether it is simple or elegant, on the basis of careful traditional craftsmanship, inherit the essence of traditional culture and keep close to the modern aesthetic needs, it should still be the constant pursuit of the Chinese furniture industry, in order to let the new and the ancient use for each other complement each other. The implication and the spirit of history are transmitted in a unique way in the world.
