Furniture - made in China

I bought some stuff during the weekend, with which we can survive during the time before the sea container arrives: a mattress, a garden table plus four chairs, two cocktail chairs with a matching glass table, a telephone, and some smaller items (plate, cutlery, cup, pans, knife, etc.).

I must say that it was a delight to see how much nice furniture is offered here in Fuzhou for very reasonable prices! You can find both very creative Chinese new design, as well as copies of the design classics. 90% of it is made in Shenzhen, one of the major cities in southern China. Supposedly, the prices there are even more attractive than here in Fuzhou. I really had to hold myself back a bit. I almost bought a lounge chair which has been on my list of favourites for quite a while already. The price is so attractive, that I am sure Shiqi won’t mind if I do buy it, when she sees the picture :-)

Shiqi doesn't like the chair, no chance for Arnoud:-)
