“It’s a piece that someone can fall in love with,” says Mary Follin of HOME in Riverwalk, as she begins pointing out her favorite selections of Chinese furniture. Chinese furnishings are the new necessity in every mountain home, she says; Modern or rustic, these hand lacquered and restored historic Chinese tables, armoires and screens are perfect for any room. These pieces are shipped directly from China and restored in Colorado. From bright orange one-of-a-kind end tables to intricately painted apothecaries, these modern Chinese pieces give any room a bit of Asian flair.

Apothecary
This old apothecary is from the 1840s and is a one-of-a-kind original. It was restored by hand in China before being shipped here, where it has been able to full acclimate to our dry climate.

Antique Wood Table
This antique wood table features funky hidden drawers along the side. The unique shape and color make it a perfect rustic Chinese masterpiece.

Sideboard
This sideboard’s bright orange color makes it stand out just enough to be noticed.

Armoire
This armoire is not only nice to look at, but also multifunctional, serving as a media station or dresser.
