An enjoyable read
I bought this to to complement "CHINESE Domestic Furniture" by Gustav Eck, because I am studying Furniture Design and Joinery.The "Domestic" book shows how the the joints are made, while this book, through exceptional photography, shows the very best examples, sometimes with multiple images of the same item conveniently broken down into chapters covering chairs, tables, stools etc. This gives the viewer several variations of the same joint.

One of my favourite books.
I really enjoy this book, the best photos of Ming examples that he has sold over the years. It's very informative to see close ups of parts of the pieces and the honest restoration done on them.

A very personal view
A very personal view of NY's second expert classical furniture dealer (Mr. R. H. Ellsworth being the first). Best photographs, inspired and partly witty texts, critical comments on the current trends (first of all in mainland China) of collecting and market development. A book that will is and will be a reliable scholars reference in the field.
