Among the many local furniture genres, the Jin School in Shanxi has quite a special character. Earlier we stated that there was no local furniture genre before the Qing Dynasty. The local genres that we are talking about now are clear. Jinpai furniture was formed before Ming Yongle (1424). It pays attention to practicality and materials, and pursues a powerful and strong style. Its shape is sturdy, its structure is rigorous, its workmanship is fine, and it has obvious advocating local woodcarving decoration. Northern local characteristics. This kind of folk wood furniture is famous for its dowry and cabinetry skills and strong local flavor, until the Qing Dynasty is still in production.
The unique style of Jin style furniture has its historical geographical and economic reasons. It is said that after Li Zicheng’s defeat, the peasant uprising army took away a lot of treasures in Kyoto and prepared to retreat to Shanxi after the resurrection. As a result, the matter was not fulfilled. This huge loss of wealth has given birth to a well-known industry in the country, that is, Shanxi. The Qianzhuang, on the basis of the bank, formed a Shanxi merchant that played an important role in history. These wealthy rich people have built manors with huge gold. The famous "Qiao Family Courtyard" is now a typical example. It is said that in Shanxi, there are many famous hospitals such as the Wang Family Courtyard, which is larger than the Qiao Family Courtyard. These deep house complexes, of course, require a lot of furniture to be furnished, so Jinpai furniture came into being. In the early Ming Dynasty, the rapid development of agriculture and handicrafts in the areas of Pingyang, Zhangzhou and Taiyuan, promoted commercial prosperity, and the successive camps of temples and houses also promoted the development and improvement of wooden furniture. In particular, the military fortress of Taiyuan Prefecture has a certain foundation for social economy. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the military consumption of Beisai increased, and the trade became more and more prosperous. The wooden furniture of Yangqu and Yuci also developed greatly and formed a major production area. The rise of the furniture industry in Datong.
Jinpai furniture is mainly lacquered wood furniture
It originated from the enamel and lacquer wares in Jiandu, Shanxi. Later, it was mainly applied to the techniques of pushing lacquer, cloud carving, snail and lacquer painting.
The development of Jinzuo wood furniture and lacquer wood is obviously different. The former has been gradually expanding since ancient times; the latter is intermittently and scattered in the production area, and some techniques start late. If it is inferred from time, Jin Zuo furniture is generally expanded from south to north, and spreads all over the country. Its main production is concentrated in Taiyuan, Yangqu and Yuci. Why is this happening? This is to be analyzed from the historical background of the time.
