Shopping in China is great fun and covers a huge range of experiences, from access to eminent art collections in Hong Kong to haggling with a street market vendor in Chengdu, from one of the world's largest textile markets to the private studio of one of China's top designers, from retail to wholesale, from well-known to undiscovered. Apart from traditional items sourced in China, such as silks, ceramics, pearls, lacquerware, ink-brush paintings and more there is an exciting phenomenum taking place in the Chinese design space. A new breed of designer, both Chinese and foreign, is taking advantage of China's core strengths in crafts and materials and leveraging these to create updated Chinese products for modern lifestyles and applications. To understand what we mean by this, you might look up such brands as Spin, Chang & Biorck or Jooi. This is one interesting direction in which China is heading.
