We’ve got another one –a huge new shipment has just been unloaded and there are some spectacular pieces we are very excited about.
In the last several years we have had a handful of rare blackwood furniture that have flown out the door within days of its arrival. Now we are thrilled to be able to bring to you a fabulous, intricately carved solid blackwood armoire and desk. These stunning examples showcase the carver’s skill executing the sinuous forms of dragons and clouds that cover the surfaces of both the desk and cabinet. This would be a once in a lifetime buy that will bring pleasure for a lifetime.
As well as those showstoppers, we have hundreds of other additions to our inventory that will make a wonderful compliment to any room’s décor. New dining tables, coffee tables, cabinets in all sizes and shapes, and a platform bed that is one of our hottest sellers ever round out the shipment.
And if that is not enough, we are putting out the most over the top, exotic antique wedding bed to come along in a long time. You’ve got to come in and see first hand what goodies are in store.

It may be “June Gloom” again, but we can banish the dreary doldrums with our sizzling hot summer sale. For 4 days, you’ll find furniture and accessories at unheard of prices, along with a selection that can’t be beat. We’ve got everything from armoires to agate snuff bottles, from cabinets to Chinese wedding beds, and so much more. Merchandise is continually being replenished, so if you come on the first day, make sure you come back again as more items are brought out.

If you are looking for armoires, this is the perfect opportunity to grab a beautifully carved and painted cabinet from the southern region of China where they are famous for their delicate workmanship.
Or, maybe you are in the market for a gift for Mother’s day and would like to surprise her with an unusual piece of jewelry. We carry a large selection of one-of-a-kind necklaces from a local jewelry designer that incorporate antique Chinese findings such as gold vermeil collar ornaments that act as the centerpieces of garnet bead strands. If the recipient tends more towards the classics, we have a nice array of single and multi-strand pearl necklaces that range from the more delicate freshwater keshi, to large, rare baroque pearls.
And don’t forget to check out our inventory of fabulous accessories that will make an old, tired room fresh and timely again.

Sometimes an unexpected comment can trigger an ah–ha moment, where you are confronted with a question or solution that seems so obvious, so simplistic that you wonder – why didn’t I think of that?
Yesterday evening just such an occurrence happened. A young woman, having recently moved to the city, came into our store and was astonished at the collection of furniture and art contained within this unprepossessing building. After perusing for a few minutes, she came over to where we were in the midst of a discussion concerning a marketing proposal and made a seemingly innocuous observation.
Her question as to why we hadn’t shown up on her internet search for either rustic or solid wood furniture in San Diego brought us to a standstill. So focused on our own experiences in the usage of various terms used to describe specific items such as cabinets, tables and so on, we neglected to use the words rustic, or even more surprisingly – solid wood.
As these are descriptions both ourselves and our customers use daily to convey the attributes of literally hundreds of furniture pieces in our store, it came as a surprise that something so glaringly apparent was overlooked.
It’s always a guessing game in trying to figure out how someone is going to search for a particular object, and as was made abundantly clear – sometimes you need to get some input from your clientele.
With this focus in mind, I would like to let all of our new potential customers know that we do indeed carry solid wood furniture, and quite a bit of it is on the rustic side.
If you come into our store you will find tables made from old doors that look as if they had come out of some medieval castle. With their rustic charm and heavy ironwork decorating the surface, they work particularly well in Spanish or Mediterranean settings.
The dozens of cabinets that are scattered throughout the showroom are more evidence of what solid wood construction has to offer in terms of quality, character and patina. Ranging from solid elm to walnut and other hardwoods, these substantial pieces are often decorated with hand-painted details that evoke a time and place not often glimpsed in today’s hurly burly world. With hues ranging from soft terra cotta to sage green, these are the chameleons of the design world where no matter what look you are trying to achieve, we have the piece that will work for you.
And lest I forget to mention the dozens of solid wood architectural fragments, courtyard doors and window screens that populate our inventory, I hope that you begin to get the idea of just how vast and varied our stock truly is.

New Year – New Beginnings. Our first container of 2010 has just arrived and it seems like we’re experiencing Christmas all over again, what with all the unpacking and displaying of the constant stream of furniture and accessories.
Here’s just a small sampling of the new merchandise coming out to the sales floor.
Fabulous, handpainted cabinets and chests from Inner Mongolia and the hard to reach western provinces along the Silk Route.
Large scale armoires from northern China in a variety of woods such as elm and walnut.
Contemporary, clean lined furniture with an Asian twist.
Carved stone statuary including Buddhas and Kuan Yins for both the house and garden.
Rustic wood dining tables.
Large new selection of blue and white porcelian.
And the list goes on and on….

A new year is coming and here at Genghis Khan we are looking forward to implementing some new additions to our company’s event schedule to make your shopping experience with us more unique and personal. Keep an eye out for updates on upcoming functions as we will post them on this page and/or our home page.
We are also bringing in more of those hard to find, first quality antique window panels and architectural fragments the likes of which we have not seen in recent years. This is an exciting find for our customers as this was part of a cache of private stock that has just now been released after more than a decade of collecting. Many of these pieces still retain their original paint which has faded to the softly worn patina so prized by collectors. The stock is limited and pieces are going fast, so make sure you take the opportunity to come in and see these extraordinary remanents of China’s architectural history.
Here’s wishing all of our friends and customers a healthy, happy and prosperous New Year!

It’s that time of year again to celebrate over three decades of loyal customers who have made us continually strive to bring the best of what China has to offer to So. Ca. For two days we offer all in stock and special order merchandise on sale, ranging from 20% to 40% off and more. And as a special treat we are hosting a fabulous jewelry trunk show that features unique semi-precious stones incorporated with silver and vermeil. Join us for this two day event and while your at it you can enjoy some warm beverages and holiday treats at our dessert table.

Dec. 4th and 5th 2009 Don’t miss it!

Another container has just been unloaded and is headed for our showroom. Hundreds of new items including both furniture and accessories are arriving daily. Everything from large cabinets, to desks and coffee tables in a variety of finishes, are some of the new additions to our floor. And as usual, there are a multitude of wonderful and fabulous artifacts being displayed throughout the store. Rare ammonites, Tibetan doors, wood and stone carvings, and a set of bronze bells that were reproduced from a set in the Hubei Provincial Musuem are just a sampling of the unique items you’ll see when you stop by.
