Yip Collection of Classic Chinese Furniture is an important scholarly catalogue documenting one of the most celebrated private collections of classical Chinese furniture. With an introduction by Shing Yiu Yip and catalogue by Grace Wu Bruce, the volume explores the aesthetic philosophy, craftsmanship, and cultural significance of huanghuali furniture. Richly illustrated with high-quality photography, the book serves as both a reference work and a visual study of Ming and Qing dynasty furniture design.

It is housed in the original slipcase, which is very good showing only light handling wear and aging. Overall, a sharp and highly presentable copy.
