With a total investment of 200 million yuan (US$25 million) from two local entrepreneurs, the construction of a museum displaying ancient furniture and related craftsmanship will begin next week in Suzhou, Jiangsu Province's crown jewel.
Gu Hailin, the chairman of the Suzhou-based Haoqiang Rosewood Furniture Co-operation, and Qian Binrong, the owner of a national chain of jewellery stores, announced their plans for the museum last week, claiming to be fans of the traditional art.
The museum, free to all, will be built in the Pingjiang District of downtown Suzhou. It will exhibit furniture made by Suzhou masters during the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing (1644-1911) dynasties, which the investors have collected from across the country. |
