Shan Culture
This is my first day on the society and culture department of Yahoo Answers. It’s sooo racist here.?

All of the people here who hate black people for no other reason than their being black might be happy to know I shan’t be coming back. One down! Congratulations are in order for the black people haters here, I’m sure. I’m a pretty positive person but this area is draining to my spirit. I wish It could come down, but I know….freedom of speech. Carry on in good conscience, I guess =(
Wow!!! If I could rate most of you best answer I would NOW. You guys are quick and right. Thank you. I might be back, but today i’m gonna step away and do some deep relaxing breathing. You a guys are ALL wonderful. Thanks again.

If you’re happier checking out, do it. But I wish you’d stay with the good folks who are anti-racist and fight the good fight with us. It’s just a few loudmouths, or maybe more than a few. But maybe patiently educating about difference requires our patience, and some days we feel we can do it and some days we feel we’ve had too much.
Peace out.

Table Lamps – Seeing Red!

It may have been the Chinese who invented porcelain over 1000 years ago, but it took those fashionable French to give us the names of the coloured glazes, still used as standards in the West today, to identify the major range of Chinese ceramic colours.

Some of these names will be familiar such as “Famille Jaune”, or, the yellow family of glazes in which yellow is the predominant colour, “Famille Noir”, or the black family of coloured glazes, “Famille Rose”, or the pink family of colours and “Famille Verte”, the green range of glazes.

One of the most popular of these monochromes, or, single coloured glazes is   Sang de Boeuf as named by the French, or, literally, ox – blood.  Most names for colours, as used in China, were derived from nature, in this case resembling the coagulation of ox–blood.

This colour range of red glazes was developed throughout long period of the Ch’ing dynasty (1644 – 1912), the basis of the colour derived from copper.

Sang de Boeuf is found in a broad range of reds, from pale, known as Peach Bloom and on to a palette of rich dark reds.

The Antique & Vintage Table Lamp Co currently has a collection of several large examples of Chinese Sang de Boeuf lamps ranging from the mid 19th to the mid 20th century.  

This strong dark red colour works beautifully with interiors across classic and modern classic to traditional and being a single colour, is at home in any colour scheme.

Some of these lamps are mounted on elegant, French ormolu, in 18th century style, some on gold plated bronze stands and on custom turned, water gilded, maple wood stands.

The Antique & Vintage Table Lamp Co specialise in antique table lamp lighting with an on-line range of over 100 unique, antique and vintage lamps on view.

Lamps are shipped ready wired for the U.S, the U.K and Australia.

Different Types Of French Antique Furniture Reviewed

When you are considering French antique furniture to purchase, the details and conditions of the various pieces can dictate the amount you can expect to pay. There are popular pieces of French antique furniture that can bring several thousand dollars, when in very good condition. There are many styles of French antique furniture that have a variety of distinct features that indicate what period they come from.

As an example of some pieces of French antique furniture you will find for sale on certain auction websites, you will find a complete Gothic French bedroom set from 1850 that is in excellent condition and includes a headboard, armoire and two nightstands with chairs made from solid French Oak and listed for over $8400. The unique characteristics include carvings of Roman-Gothic silhouettes, ornate vine designs and all kinds of interesting carved patterns. The Roman and Greco or Gothic themes are characteristic of French antique furniture you can expect to find from this period.

When you are looking for French antique furniture, this is a period that is quite popular because of the amount of craftsmanship that was put into the furniture. Another period of French antique furniture that was equally popular is the French Art periods, that include the French Art Deco, Nouveau and Modern periods, which only lasted for a few years each. The characteristics of these periods were the ornately carved embellishments that resembled works of art, thus the name for the periods.

French antique furniture is known for the sturdy construction, ornate carvings and luxurious embellishments, although this was lacking during a few of the periods. French antique furniture from the French Restoration and the French Country periods were simpler and less ornately carved with straighter and sleeker lines. Typically, the more ornate and unique the French antique furniture, the more money it is worth. In a review of French antique furniture in general, you want to try to find the most unique pieces, with the most ornate carvings.

There are many of these unique pieces on the market as the French antique furniture market specializes in scouring the countryside of France and bringing these unique antique pieces of furniture to the United States. In fact, there are many pieces of French antique furniture that is completely as it was when it was originally assembled, carved and put into use. French royalty had some of the finest pieces, however, many of the most unique pieces of French antique furniture can be found at some of the antique furniture dealers that specialize in European or French antique furniture in the United States.

Another example of this is characteristic in French antique furniture would be a vintage antique oak French country Louis XV Sideboard server buffet that is listed in very good condition for $2400. The curved lines and difference in patterns for this circa 1950 sideboard server indicate the difference in construction along with the difference in the wood carvings that adorn it. When you are reviewing the difference in French antique furniture that is very good, it would be in almost original condition with the exception of a few nicks and mars that come with age. To make an excellent rating, it would be in almost good as new condition. This piece is found in America on a popular auction website, as well.

Many of the pieces of French antique furniture that you will find for sale can typically range between the early 1800′s to the mid 1900′s, but the older the French antique furniture is, the more valuable it is. The other thing to consider in a review of French antique furniture is the wide variety of styles that also have varied ornate qualities in the wood carved subjects between the periods. This is especially true of those that were from the popular French Provincial periods, the Art Nouveau and Art Modern periods, as well as some of the pieces that are from the Louis the XV or XVI periods.

During the Louis XVI period in the early 20th century, you could expect to find French antique furniture that include Gold Gilt, Bronze Gilt and various inlays of ivory or mother-of-pearl, for example. One example of this unique period is an ornately French hand carved three piece salon set that is offered on one of the auction sites for $3900. It has French wood trimmed in Gold Gilt, with precise carvings that include flowers, shells, and leaves. The original antique white finish with the gold trim is also characteristic of the period. Made of extremely heavy duty and hard wood, it is rated in excellent condition and is a very unique set. Flowers, shells and things from nature are typical of the carvings you will find during this period.

In a review of French antique furniture, some of these examples are meant to give you an idea of the affordability of some of these pieces of art that antique furniture collectors treasure. For not much more than some of the high-end furniture of today, you can own a priceless relic that will appreciate in value. For this reason, many Americans that have exquisite taste in furniture will choose French antique furniture for their home or as part of their collection.

Many of the antique furniture dealers can be commissioned to find the pieces of French antique furniture you are looking for if it isn’t readily available. Since the various periods had such distinct features, it is helpful to pick the periods you like the best and select the type of furniture that you like the best. Whether you are looking to furnish your living room, dining room, bedroom or a parlor, you can find the exact pieces to give a focal point to your room.

If you are interested in locating some of these unique pieces of art that have the most ornately carved wood you will find in furniture styles, French antique furniture is the best choice. No matter which period you select, an antique furniture dealer will be able to tell you all about the history of these special pieces and find the ones you are looking for, whether in the United States or on a buying trip in France. In a review of French antique furniture, it can be a matter of personal taste, no matter which period you prefer.
