The furniture in this store isn’t the cheapest in the city by a long shot, but those looking to settle down should give it a peek. The wide-open space features furniture from Gunnar Falsig, a 122-year-old Danish brand, which promises to ‘combine Danish modern furniture ideas and Chinese traditional furniture philosophy’. The Chinese element is restricted to a few carved floral patterns here and there, but the furniture is stylish and well made. Like Ikea, Qumei arranges its products into twee, home-like displays; unlike Ikea, much of its furniture is composed of solid oak, walnut and elm, although melamine and veneered items are available. This is sturdy stuff, but expensive: a robust wooden dining table can be picked up for 8,473RMB, while a rather refined-looking bookcase costs a cool 15,398RMB.
