This pair of traditional Ming Dynasty style armchairs is a SketchUp model featuring intricate lattice backrest detailing. These armchairs are crafted in a classic Ming Dynasty style, defined by their elegant, clean lines and structural simplicity. The chairs feature a high, curved yoke-back design with a central vertical splat that incorporates delicate, hand-carved circular lattice motifs. The armrests are gracefully arched and supported by slender, vertical spindles, connecting seamlessly to the square seat frame. The legs are sturdy and connected by simple stretchers for added stability, reflecting the balanced proportions and minimalist aesthetic characteristic of historical Chinese furniture. The deep, rich wood tone provides a sophisticated appearance suitable for formal interior settings.
The download is a 124 MB compressed archive containing the native SketchUp (.skp) model holding 2 separate objects. It opens directly in SketchUp; for 3ds Max, Blender or Cinema 4D, import it through a SketchUp importer or convert it first.
Within SketchUp, these armchairs are organised into individual components to allow for easy placement and rotation within a space. Users should check the component axes upon insertion to ensure proper alignment with floor planes. The wood textures are mapped to standard faces, allowing for simple material adjustments or colour variations using the native paint bucket tool. Because these models are geometry-heavy due to the lattice work, it is recommended to place them on a dedicated layer to maintain viewport performance during the design phase.
