This armchair is
called “Rose Chairs” in Chinese. Rose chairs
were made for decoration, and were usually
placed under the window. The back of this
chair is decorated with simple geometric
work. The arms are strengthened by
supporting stiles which divert the weight to
the seat. On all the four sides of the legs,
there is a stretcher. Below the seat, on
each side, an extra stretcher is used to
strengthen the construction.
