The origins of metal furniture can be traced back to ancient bronze ware, with a long history in both the West and China. Modern metal furniture production in China began in the late 1950s, initially focusing on imitating foreign products.
In the 1960s, metal furniture processing and production gradually developed into an independent industry, with advancements in production techniques and design. By the 1970s, metal furniture had entered homes and public spaces, breaking the dominance of wooden furniture.
In 1979, China's metal furniture production reached 9.75 million pieces, accounting for 25.2% of the country's total furniture production.
