Shanxi, circa 1850 A timeless Chinese elm table from Shanxi, circa 1850, originally crafted for serving and display. The substantial top sits on gently rounded, recessed legs brace d by single front and back stretchers and paired side supports. A simple moulded apron and spandrels frame the piece, retaining traces of the original dark lacquer. The exposed elm reveals its natural warmth and striking grain, a testament to centuries of weathering. Constructed entirely with mortise and tenon joinery - no nails required - this table exemplifies traditional Chinese craftsmanship at its finest. Today, it serves as a striking console or display surface, adding character and authenticity to any interior. Show more
