Intro

Founded by Laurent Colson in 1997, Luohan Tang is dedicated to classical Chinese furniture, as well as scholar’s objects. Over the years, Luohan Tang has organized exhibitions and published in-depth essays and catalogues that have introduced Chinese scholar’s taste and lifestyle to a wider public. Today the gallery focuses on Chinese lacquer furniture, which has been greatly appreciated by high French society for the past 400 years. French aristocrats loved the joyful scenery, vibrant colours and wonderful sheen of Chinese lacquer. Laurent Colson seeks to reemphasise the importance of lacquer in the overall context of Chinese furniture, showing the creativity of the shapes and decoration, and the wide variety of techniques involved.
