Tibetan furniture is primitive and simple, yet gorgeous. It is ornamented with colorful paintings, precious stones, engraved wood, etc. Whats more, it is often decorated with fur, which is peculiar to this nation. In addition to these, it is also famous for its magical decorative patterns, associated with fortune and treasure. Tibetan furniture is rich in color. Red, yellow and brown are the ones most favored by people there. Paintings on the furniture are often related to religion, which can be mysterious in an outsiders eye.
