LOL.................thanks MIke. These were formerly put in the meeting/sitting rooms of those high ranking mandarin official, meaning, so that the visitors would not stayed too long. The settees were also the significant of standard and social status too.

I have absolutely no memory of these. Pretty to look at.

I've never seen such beautiful furniture. Hand crafted made a big difference in the end product.

Thank you Jona, Neusinha and Bob. A set of such furniture would easily cost you USD10,000.00 or more. Nice to look at, too expensive to possess.

Very beautiful. A lot of hard work by dedicated craftsman. Needs some cushions though !

LOL...................thanks Lorraine. But please think of it in summer, with the marble and the hard rosewood, it will be very cooling to sit on them.
