There are several kinds of common armchairs, such as hanging lamp chairs with heads up and wooden comb chairs with straight backs. Chair, also known as Hu Chuang, was originally used by the ancient Ma people in China, and is usually considered as a change from sitting on the floor to sitting in a chair. The structure of the top chair is that the front and rear legs cross again, taking the intersection as the axis, and the upper beam can be folded through the rope instead of the seat, and an iron ring is installed on it.
The chair ring is generally composed of three to five tenons, and the lower part is composed of eight wooden sticks. Most joints are fixed with metal parts. The whole shape looks like multiple triangles from the side, with slender and lively lines, but stable. Because its legs are crossed, it is called the top spot. In the Ming and Qing dynasties, those with armchair rings were usually called top seats, while those without armchair rings were called shuttlecock or maza-e. The top chair can be folded, which is very convenient to carry and store. They can be used not only indoors, but also outdoors. In the Song, Yuan, Ming and even Qing Dynasties, royal nobles or officials and gentry took this kind of chair when they went out for cruising and hunting, so that their owners could sit down and rest anytime and anywhere. This is why the top chair is also called "walking chair" and "hunting chair".
