椅子

Derived from the folding cross chair (Jiaoyi), it features a continuous curved backrest that seamlessly connects to the armrests, sloping gently from high to low. When seated, one’s arms can rest comfortably on the circular armrests. With its graceful, smooth lines and a sturdy yet elegant silhouette, it is one of the most distinctive traditional Chinese chair styles. It is mostly displayed in pairs and holds significant artistic value and cultural connotations.
