The Asian Furni range is the first cultural themed furniture range to appear in Habbo in 2006. The Chinese Lacquer Sofa and Chinese Red Knots first appeared as bonus item. Each time a Habbo bought clothing from Spreadshirt they received a voucher code that could be redeemed in their purse [1]. Later the line was slowly released into the Catalogue. Its technical name should be Chinese furniture, however, it was the only Asian culture themed furniture when it was released. The chair, small table and bookcase first appeared in Denmark in Version 11, October 2006; the screen in the German Hotel in November 2006 and the corner screen in the French Hotel in January 2007. With the release of V12, the screens were recoloured to match the rest of the Asian furniture, rather than the colour of Marquees which they originally had. These items are often now released around Chinese New Year.

Spreadshirt Action
In May 2006, Habbos could design their own shirts and accessories on Spreadshirt.
By simply choosing a Habbo alt code design or any other design, they could add them to a T-shirt or any other accessory. By Ordering, Habbos would receive a voucher code that could be redeemed in their purse (as mentioned earlier).
The 2 Bonus items; Chinese Lacquer Sofa and Chinese Red Knots would appear in their hand in about 6 hours after redeeming.
According to archived internet pages, this action was available till at least begin to mid-2007, however it is unsure if the bonus items have been given out via the action after their catalogue release anymore.
Trivia
- Due to the Chinese Lacquer Sofa and Chinese Red Knots being bonus items, Habbo's who bought a clothing item got a special code, however; This code could be redeemed in any hotel, so these 2 specific furniture also started to appear in Habbo Netherlands for example, which made the confusion that these were scripted items. Habbo NL made a news post about it later on to state that this was not the case.
- In 2012 during the Safer Internet Day campaign, 20 users could win a Tiger Seat.
