Create an eye catching feature with our Chinese stools and benches

From the perfect place for your favourite lamp, through to occasional seating or somewhere to put drinks, Chinese stools and benches don’t have to be reserved for the dining room. Our collection includes simple rustic designs, alongside elegant lacquered pieces and stunning ceramic stools. You’ll find that our range includes both new and antique items: antique items offer the ideal way to bring a touch of history into your home, whilst our new furniture items are made from reclaimed timber using traditional oriental joinery techniques. Our antique pieces are carefully sourced by us from China and are chosen for their traditional elegance and history. Here at Shimu you’ll find that we also offer a wide range of Chinese furniture and Asian-inspired accessories for your home; from Chinese dining tables and oriental dressing tables, through to bed frames, kitchenware, lighting, soft furnishings and more.
