Fifth Anniversary Review Series (VII): Classic Furniture of The Ming and The Qing Dynasties: The Cabinets Series

It was in the autumn of 2012 that China Guardian (HK) held its first auctions in Hong Kong. Under the support of the general collecting community and friends both old and new, the auctions achieved great success with total sales reaching HKD 450 million. The events were such a sensation that they are probably still fresh in many people’s minds. Five years on, China Guardian (HK) is now firmly established in Hong Kong, bringing the local art market to a new level with the backup of an enterprising and persevering professional team.

To mark our fifth anniversary (the China Guardian Year), China Guardian Hogn Kong 2017 Autumn Auctions will be held in the Hong Kong Convention Centre this year.
