Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. Illustrated Edition. Dreams of Chu Tan Chamber and the Romance with Huanghuali Wood: The Dr. S. Y. Yip Collection of Classic Chinese Furniture is an important scholarly catalogue documenting one of the most celebrated private collections of classical Chinese furniture. With an introduc…tion by Shing Yiu Yip and catalogue by Grace Wu Bruce, the volume explores the aesthetic philosophy, craftsmanship, and cultural significance of huanghuali furniture.
