class=\"answer\"><strong>Foshan has become a centre for mid-century, French-vintage and wabi-sabi furniture, sold through large showrooms in Lecong, Longjiang and Nanhai that are often attached to their own factories. You will find three kinds of piece: original designs by Chinese studios, adaptations that borrow the era&#8217;s language, and copies of famous models sold under nicknames. Buy the first two, specify leather, veneer and finish in writing, and check anything close to a known design with a local adviser before importing it.<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"nums\">\n<div><b>RMB 13,800<\/b><span>package price a seller advertised for a mid-century room set<\/span><\/div>\n<div><b>6,000 m\u00b2<\/b><span>floor area of one Nanhai mid-century showroom<\/span><\/div>\n<div><b>1,000 m\u00b2<\/b><span>a Longjiang showroom divided into budget zones<\/span><\/div>\n<div><b>1,800<\/b><span>Chinese districts one seller says it delivers and installs to<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"what-do-mid-century-and-wabi-sabi-mean-in-foshan-showrooms\">What do \u201cmid-century\u201d and \u201cwabi-sabi\u201d mean in Foshan showrooms?<\/h2>\n<p><strong>In Foshan, \u201cmid-century\u201d is a broad vintage look \u2014 walnut, tan and oiled leather, burl veneer, curved sofas and French-influenced cabinets \u2014 while wabi-sabi means raw textures, linen, pale timber and handmade-looking forms.<\/strong> The Chinese term usually translated as mid-century covers more than the American modernism of the 1950s and 1960s: showroom posts in our research mix French vintage TV units, carved solid-wood dining tables, burl-wood desks and tea cabinets, oversized leather sofas and even Song-dynasty-inspired tea rooms under the same label.<\/p>\n<p>That breadth is useful for contemporary furniture from China, because factories adapt the era&#8217;s language rather than reproduce single designs. It also makes it easy to mix: many buyers combine a mid-century sofa with <a href=\"\/ru\/%d0%b1%d0%bb%d0%be%d0%b3\/new-chinese-style-furniture\/\">new Chinese-style<\/a> timber pieces or a quiet Italian-minimalist base.

A third seller runs a 1,000 m\u00b2 showroom with one-to-one design support and says it delivers and installs to about 1,800 districts across China.<\/p>\n<p>The pattern is consistent: large, dressed showrooms, a claimed factory behind them, custom sizes and colours, and an appointment expected \u2014 one seller asks visitors to <a href=\"\/ru\/%d0%b1%d0%bb%d0%be%d0%b3\/foshan-showroom-appointments-questions-to-send-before-you-travel\/\">message before arriving<\/a> so that someone can receive them.
