In order to promote Chinese traditional culture and promote the further development of the traditional furniture industry, the first China (Jiangmen) Traditional Furniture Boutique Appreciation Conference will be held on December 11-15 at the Wuyi Overseas Chinese Plaza Convention and Exhibition Center in Jiangmen City.
As a city with the title of “China Traditional Furniture Professional Town” and “China Classical Furniture Capital”, the city is not only an important production place with great influence in the domestic traditional furniture industry, but also the most representative of the city. One of the industries. The traditional furniture of our city inherits the "Guang Zuo" art tradition in the furniture of Ming and Qing Dynasties, and stands up with "Jing Zuo" and "Su Zuo", gradually forming a unique "Jiangmen style". This newspaper has launched a series of reports on “Traditional Furniture Jiangmen Made” to explore the development of Jiangmen traditional furniture industry.
The traditional furniture industry in Jiangmen started in the 1970s and accelerated at the beginning of this century. In the 1970s, a group of Wuyi people engaged in the acquisition and repair of old furniture, with years of experience in repairing old furniture, gradually mastered the skills of classical furniture production and founded a Chinese classical furniture manufacturer with Ming and Qing furniture styles. After years of development, the Wuyi area has formed a chain of upstream and downstream supporting industries for timber sales, classical furniture copper production, wood craft carving, classical furniture production, and classical furniture sales. A number of classical furniture villages, classical furniture streets and classical styles have emerged. Furniture City, the sales of classical furniture ranked first in the same industry in the country for many years.
The beginning of the collection of the birth of furniture, the old and the old, as the collection of Ming and Qing furniture, rose in the late 1970s and early 1980s. The entire 1980s was the golden age of domestic collection of old furniture. In 1986, a series of "Ming and Qing Furniture Awards" edited by Wang Shizhen, a famous Chinese and Ming Dynasty furniture connoisseur, some savvy Hong Kong and Taiwan classical furniture collectors learned from the inside that the old folk furniture in the mainland is rich in stocks and highly collectible. They went deep into urban and rural areas and joined forces with the urban and rural supply and marketing cooperatives at that time. They bought a large number of Ming and Qing furniture such as huanghuali, ebony and chicken wing wood at low prices.
At that time, the Wuyi people appeared in the “buying 佬” of buying old furniture through the streets. Mr. Li Gen, who is currently living in the United States and still engaged in antiques and classical furniture business, was the “buy 佬” of the first batch of old furniture of the Xinhui. Initially, Li Gen followed his father's street and alleys to acquire old furniture locally. Due to the large stock of old folk furniture, people know little about the value of old furniture. The acquisition business is quite prosperous. They can earn more than ten yuan a day or even a few. Ten yuan, quite a considerable income also attracted several of his friends and relatives to join the acquisition ranks, becoming the first batch of people to buy old furniture. In Dajiang Town, Taishan City, many people first acquired all kinds of old furniture and then involved in the classical furniture manufacturing industry.
At the beginning, they only acquired small-sized old furniture in the Wuyi area. With the increase in the volume of purchases, the old and small pieces of folk furniture in the Wuyi area gradually decreased. In order to seek development, they expanded the scope of the acquisition and went out of the way. I walked into the big city of Xiguan, Guangzhou, and traveled to both urban and rural areas. At the same time, they also began to target the acquisition of large pieces of old furniture. In order to facilitate transportation, they dismantled and disassembled large pieces of old furniture and shipped them back to Wuyi for reinstallation. In this process of disassembly and assembly, they had unexpected gains and gradually mastered the structure, craftsmanship and techniques of classical furniture (view map) in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
Early collectors of traditional furniture acquisitions gradually discovered and recognized the potential value of old furniture during the acquisition process, and were no longer satisfied with reselling old furniture after it was recovered. In order to obtain more benefits, in the late 1970s, there was a workshop in the Wuyi area to rent a ancestral hall, where large pieces of old furniture were installed, and the slightly damaged old furniture was simply processed. In this way, from acquisition to disassembly, from disassembly to dressing, laid the foundation for the antique furniture production in Xinhui and Taishan.
Inheritance is not only a "buy 佬 用" hard work to create a career in the mid-1980s, the acquisition of old folk furniture can not meet the large demand of overseas markets, a group of people engaged in the acquisition of old furniture in the renovation of old furniture, Xinhui and Taishan began to try to copy the classical furniture of the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
Wu Bingliang, a Ming furniture designer who enjoys the reputation of “Lingnan Luban”, also began to try to repair old furniture between sale and purchase, and contacted many experts to learn from it and gradually accumulated rich experience. "In the beginning, we used to imitate furniture, and the work was very rough. We didn't mold. In one day in 1987, I came to the home of a goldsmith in Duanfen Town, Taishan, and saw a goose-shaped bench in the middle and late Qing Dynasty. The style is very beautiful, I like it very much, but the other party refuses to sell it. Later, I used huanghuali as raw material, and added my own creativity to make a replica. Since then, I have specialized in the innovative design of classical furniture. "Wu Bingliang said. Since then, Wu Bingliang began to select the most valuable wood for each of his works, carefully conceived, in addition to extracting the essence of Ming and Qing furniture, innovating and carving a piece of furniture. For more than 20 years, Wu Bingliang's innovative Ming and Qing style art furniture has been collected by major museums at home and abroad, and has won numerous awards in various exhibitions.
Deng Qinchang, Secretary General of the Classical Furniture Industry Association of Xinhui District, Jiangmen City, said that since the first set of Ming Dynasty antique furniture “Palace Chair” was successfully copied and sold to Hong Kong and Macao, many people saw business opportunities from the “Palace Chair” imitation. Get rid of the mode of buying and selling only, began to imitate Ming style classical furniture, and the antique furniture folk workshops of the former shop and the factory came into being.
In the early days, they were engaged in the acquisition, decoration, and imitation of classical furniture. They were all locals of Wuyi. They gradually mastered the craftsmanship of classical furniture, and inherited the “Guang Zuo” art tradition and elaborate craftsmanship in the furniture of Ming and Qing Dynasties. Classical furniture based on style, due to high quality and low price and good reputation, the business is fierce, they earned the enviable first bucket of gold in the simple home workshop. At that time, the imitation classical furniture market was mainly concentrated in Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and abroad. The custom-made merchants were mainly Chinese in Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, Southeast Asia and Europe, and there were also some foreign businessmen.
Yu Guoxiang, executive vice president of the Classical Furniture Industry Association of Xinhui District, Jiangmen City, said, "The key is to master the style and special style of furniture in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and inherit and carry forward the art of making mahogany furniture in China!" In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the "Guang Zuo" art tradition and exquisite craftsmanship, together with "Jing Zuo" and "Su Zuo", are well-known at home and abroad.
The company has formed a production and sales chain with an output value of more than 3 billion yuan. With the continuous development of the industry, many classical furniture enterprises have now developed into professional manufacturers with hundreds of workers. In the past, “buying 佬” has become today's entrepreneurs.
According to the introduction of the city's economic and trade department, in recent years, Jiangmen's traditional furniture industry has maintained a relatively fast growth rate, forming an obvious scale advantage, and gradually formed a classical furniture industry belt with the Dajiang-public welfare exhibition hall plus base model, and Xinhui classical furniture. One Street, Wuyi Classical Furniture City, Xinhui Hebei Village, the largest furniture industry in the country, is the largest traditional furniture industry belt in the country. In the three major producing areas of traditional (classical) furniture in China (Taishan, Xinhui, Fujian Xianyou), the city has occupied two of them. Dajiang Town of Taishan City was awarded the honor of “China Traditional Furniture Professional Town”, and Xinhui District was awarded the title of “China Classical Furniture Capital” by China Arts and Crafts Association.
In recent years, a lot of work has been done through deepening industry integration, promoting product upgrading, and creating fine furniture through various government departments, which has promoted the rapid and healthy development of the traditional furniture industry as a whole. At present, there are about 600 enterprises engaged in the traditional furniture industry in Jiangmen, including about 300 in Xinhui District, about 200 in Taishan City, and about 100 in Pengjiang District, Jianghai District and Heshan City. In 2008, the output value of the traditional furniture industry in the city reached 3 billion yuan, and the output value has been among the highest in the country for many years.
