A set of zitan (amboyna wood) furniture once presented as a gift to a prince, which is displayed in a glass enclosure on the museum's second floor, was purchased in 1983 from a collector in Hong Kong. It goes some way towards filling the gap left when the museum was forced to leave behind its heavy furniture collection as it hurriedly moved to Taiwan.
陳列在二樓玻璃櫃內的一套恭王府紫檀木傢具，則是民國七十二年向香港收藏家所購得，可以略補故宮當年匆匆遷台，較重的傢具都沒有帶的遺缺。
