Showcasing elegance

A lifelong enthusiast of traditional Chinese painting, Xu Jianping excels in designing Ming-style furniture, which originated from Suzhou during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) and is known for its clean and simple designs.

Even in the digital age, Xu's solid foundation in meticulous painting remains evident.

At 70, Xu, an inheritor of Ming-style furniture-making techniques, has completed major restoration projects, including the Humble Administrator's Garden and the Master of Nets Garden in Suzhou, as well as the former residence of Hu Xueyan (1823-85), a prominent businessman and official in the Qing Dynasty, in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province.

In 1970, Xu embarked on his journey by delving into the realms of Chinese flower-and-bird painting and Suzhou embroidery design. By 1973, he had immersed himself in the craft at a Suzhou rosewood carving factory, dedicating a year to mastering woodworking and another year to honing his carving skills.
