The identification of Ming and Qing furniture, the identification of the age is an important one. In addition to judging the age from the material, the more important information comes from the variety and decoration of the furniture. The characteristics of the modeling era are obvious The varieties and shapes of Ming and Qing furniture have obvious characteristics of the times. Such as wine tables, round backrest chairs and Other furniture, still popular in the Ming Dynasty, gradually eliminated after entering the Qing; and the style of the Taishi chair, is the representative of Qing style furniture. Another example is the coffee table, which is a variety produced in order to adapt to the arrangement of Qing style furniture. Most of them are mahogany and new yellow pear products. I have not seen the age earlier. In addition, such as folding chairs, folding incense, etc., are new varieties that appear after the Qing Dynasty. The piers that are popular in both the Ming and Qing dynasties are also significantly different in shape. In the Ming Dynasty, the pier was fat and short, and the Qing Dynasty was thin and tall. The legs and legs of the tables and chairs also experienced a process from thin to thick. Tables and chairs with the characteristics of the former are generally older than the latter. The identification of Ming and Qing furniture is early and late, and sometimes it can be judged according to certain components. For example, the backrest of the Ming Dynasty official hat chair has no basic light. The backrests of the official hats of the Qing Dynasty are mostly carved plates, and the plain plates are rare. Another example is the straight-legged shackles of the Ming-style furniture, and the shackles are often used in the middle of the Qing Dynasty. Another example is the cabinet. The cabinets in the Ming style are mostly rounded, and the side feet are clearly collected. The main lines are decorated with various smooth lines, and the carving is not heavy. After entering the clearing, this type of rounded cabinet is gradually reduced, replaced by a square corner cabinet, the bottom is straight, the side feet are getting smaller and smaller, and there is basically no side feet after the middle of the Qing Dynasty. The ornamentation also has the difference of the times In the identification of ancient artifacts, it is an important criterion to use the decorative style and ornamentation. Furniture is no exception. There are differences in the times between Ming and Qing furniture in decorative techniques and ornamentation. In general, Ming style furniture is exquisite but not obscenity, simple but not vulgar, thick but not sluggish, and its unique aesthetic personality and art form are also clearly reflected in the decorative pattern. The motifs of Ming style furniture such as pine, bamboo, plum, orchid, pomegranate, ganoderma lucidum, lotus and other plant themes; mountains, rocks, villages, pavilions and other landscape themes are more common, and a large number of motifs with auspicious meanings are used. Such as Fang Sheng, Pan Chang, Wan Zi, Ruyi, Yuntou, Turtle, Curved Ruler, Chain and other patterns, compared with the Qing Dynasty furniture, the theme of Ming style furniture decoration is mostly elegant, quite "Mingyue Qingquan", "Yangchun White Snow" The interest of Wenru's Coats and the like adds to the elegance of Ming style furniture. The Qing style furniture is famous for its gorgeous carvings, and its decorative patterns also reflect this aesthetic style. In terms of expression techniques, Qing style furniture can be described as a icing on the cake. Compared with Mingmei furniture, the artisans in the Qing Dynasty paid more attention to the beauty of man-made craftsmanship, but did not pay attention to the natural texture of materials. Therefore, it is rare to see the large-scale elements in the furniture of the Qing Dynasty. . In the late Qing Dynasty, the furniture ornamentation was put together into the auspicious words with the names of various items, such as “Luhe Tongchunâ€, “More than a yearâ€, “Feng wearing peonyâ€, “Flowers are rich and richâ€, “Finger is risingâ€, “ "The early birth of the son", "Jiqing has more than", etc., court furniture used "quown clouds holding the day", "Shuanglong play beads", "Hongfu Qitian", "five blessings", "longfeng Chengxiang" and so on. The pattern is also a common decorative pattern in ancient China. The appearance of the back on the furniture appeared in the Qing Dynasty, especially during the Qianlong period. During this period, the furniture was mostly carved with a horseshoe pattern on the leg foot of the table chair. In short, the rich and colorful theme is one of the characteristics of the Qing Dynasty furniture pattern. After the Qing Emperor Yongzheng, imitating the Western style of the atmosphere, especially in the Qing Dynasty, the style of furniture, the emergence of Chinese and Western combined furniture. It is worth noting that some subjects, although both Ming and Qing, are used, but there are differences in the content of the patterns. The dragon has been a totem for the worship of the Chinese nation since ancient times. The application of dragon pattern in Ming and Qing furniture is quite extensive. In the Ming Dynasty, many dragons and dragons (also known as the dragons or grass dragons) were carved. As a kind of Swiss beast, Qilin is also a decorative theme commonly used in ancient China. In the middle of the Ming Dynasty, Qilin must be in a prone position, that is, both the front and the back are lying on the ground, and from the late Ming Dynasty to the early Qing Dynasty, the unicorn must be in a sitting position, the front legs are no longer squatting but straight, and the hind legs are still the same as the middle and middle. After entering the Qing Emperor Kangxi, Qilin stood up and looked at it. Because Ming and Qing furniture in the decoration or in accordance with the tradition, or deliberately counterfeit, it is extremely difficult to break the generation. Therefore, the reference can be selected to compare the generations. In the reference comparison, it is better to compare the subjects with the same or close, so that it is easier to judge the age and the results are more accurate. The reference material can be a pattern on crafts such as jade, porcelain, and red lacquer, especially the decorative patterns on the buildings of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, which often have more similarities with the decorative patterns of materials, contents and forms.
