It was larger in size with grandeur and pageantry.Engraving was a popular and important means of furniture decoration. The subjects range from auspicious character patterns, to geometric patterns and scenes in nature with animals, mountains and waters, flowers and grass. Color painting, especially gold painting, was widely used.Commercial symbols emerged, such as patterns concerning money and fortune.To later Qing furniture has less engraving ,instead ,inlays of stone, which catch the eye more easily than exquisite engraving, are used to tell of the luxurious lifestyle of the owner.
