Our Story

Starting with a small, hand-painted studio three decades ago, our journey has evolved into a remarkable endeavor to recreate the exquisite hand-painted chinoiserie scenic wallpapers that date back to the 18th century. DAVID QIAN specializes in sophisticated hand-painted wall coverings and meticulously crafted surface materials for both walls and furniture.

Every piece is created with unparalleled care by skilled artists who draw upon ancient techniques rooted in Chinese history. These master artisans incorporate traditional methods including embroidery, embossing, cloisonné, metallic gilding, antiquing, lacquering, and marquetry. Each piece transcends mere decoration—it becomes a genuine work of art, a carrier of culture that reflects rich heritage and artistic craftsmanship.
