The origin of the chair:
1 Mazar, which originated in the ancient capital of Qi 2,600 years ago, is famous for its unique technology, beautiful appearance, durability and portability. Mazar-e-Mazar, also known as a horse brake, fork or chair, is similar to the small stool we see today. A fork is a stool.
2, Hu Chuang, introduced from the Hu people in the Han Dynasty, is a chair with hanging feet, and now it is a marching chair. The so-called bed, "Shi Ming" said: "The bed also carries, so it carries itself." Guangya says, "Habitat is a bed." Loading, carrying and living are all for people to sit and lie down. Therefore, the things that knelt in ancient times were like sitting on a futon in Japan today, calling for bed.
Ancient Shu ancestors used stools and chairs four or five thousand years ago.
The development period of chairs:
Tang and Song Dynasties to Ming and Qing Dynasties; The chairs in the early Tang Dynasty were relatively simple, called crescent shuttlecock, similar to the stools we use now. Its panel is changed from a meniscus, and its four legs and cross stiles are connected into a whole, which is very firm. This kind of shuttlecock kicking can be found in Fan Dance, Gongle Road and Chess Manual.
There was another explanation for the word "chair" before the Tang Dynasty, which was called "beside the car", that is, the fence of the car. Its function is to make people rely on it when riding. Later, the chair was in the form of installing a fence on a platform supported by four feet. It was inspired by the fence next to the car and was called "chair" by its name. Judging from the available data, there were quite beautiful chairs in the Tang Dynasty.
