Maria Yee was born in the Southern Chinese city of Guangzhou. At 15, when the Cultural Revolution imprisoned her parents, Maria was sent to work at a rock quarry. After her release, Maria apprenticed as a machinist and studied to become a mechanical engineer.
Witnessing the destruction of China's historic treasures during the Cultural Revolution incited Maria’s passion to revitalize the art of traditional furniture making. She gathered a group of expert craftsmen and began handcrafting museum quality Ming Dynasty reproductions as a personal pursuit. Maria moved to California and founded her namesake company in 1988.
Modern Engineering, Classic Structure, Innovative Materials
The artistic merit of Maria Yee's furniture goes beyond beautiful lines and elegant shapes. Every item is handcrafted with sophisticated joinery techniques, honed through the ages. Maria refined these traditional techniques to create the proprietary BreathingJoinery™ system tailored to a modern manufacturing environment. No nails or screws mar the integrity of the raw materials.
In addition to responsibly harvested solid hardwood, material innovation led to the development of patented, FSC-certified BambooTimbre™. BambooTimbre is constructed with rapidly renewable Moso bamboo, layered to form solid bamboo boards that exceed the tensile strength of steel and allow for different textures and finishes.
Making the most of bamboo’s unique features, Maria further innovated her BreathingJoinery™ system with new patented techniques for bamboo construction. AirFrame™ was developed to create a robust structure while eliminating the visible frame lines. BEST™ (Bamboo Enhanced Structure Technology) creates incredibly strong, yet lightweight furniture while reducing material wastage.
