19th C. Chinese Hardwood Table with Rattan Top
19th C. Chinese Hardwood Table with Rattan Top
This table is constructed from a richly toned hardwood, featuring a traditional Chinese design with clean lines and mortise-and-tenon joinery. The apron is adorned with carved scroll motifs, a subtle decorative element commonly found in classical Ming and Qing dynasty furniture. The top is framed with a slightly raised edge, enclosing a woven rattan panel set within the surface.
The table stands on sturdy, square-section legs that gently curve inward, a design choice that enhances both stability and visual refinement. The legs are connected by stretchers, reinforcing the structure while maintaining an open and balanced form. The construction reflects traditional Chinese woodworking techniques, emphasizing both functionality and aesthetic harmony.
The use of hardwood ensures durability, while the rattan inset provides a lightweight yet resilient surface. This combination of materials and craftsmanship is characteristic of refined domestic furnishings in classical Chinese interiors.
