BEIJING

The colours of China
The shelves stocked with a consistency of patterns that have been around forever. Making it easy to add to your collection of dishes. Extra lids are available as well as ceramic spoons all part of an open stock.

Souvenirs of Moa in bust forms or standing up in salute and pens for any occasion.


There are Mao alarm clocks and even ones without Mao.


The traditional Blue and white vases are plentiful and come in all sizes.

Home temples supplies to whichever God or deity you want to worship.


A multitude of furniture from lacquered to bamboo or the more expensive rosewood.


Well stocked herbalists with endless supplies for whatever might ail you.


Paper in the form of umbrellas, lanterns and party supplies.

Traditional tea rooms with decoratively carved Rosewood furniture


 The Tea Merchants

All of these photos are from Chinatown, Vancouver where the colours of China are in full bloom.
