Chinese Dragon Scale Table Set with Square Stools, c. 1900

About the Item

This early 20th century tea table and set of four stools were carved of a fine hardwood with a tight grain and beautiful, warm coloring. The detailed style of carving on the legs and aprons was described to us by the collector from whom we acquired it as "like the scales on a dragon's back", a pattern which we have never before encountered. We love the inherent luxury of the wood and the unusual yet timeless texture - serious, fashionable and happy at the same time. Additional Dimensions Table surface: 27.5" x 27.5" Stools: 16.75" H x 10.25" W x 10.25" D (7 lb. each).

Chinese Square Dining or "Eight Immortals" Table

This sturdy, almost architectural Chinese table is is an excellent example of "scholar's furniture". Scholar's furniture is known for rounded frames that suggest tree trunks and a general lack of unnecessary adornment. The table's floating panel top is held by round corner posts that gracefully transform into square feet as they meet the ground. Arched spandrels connect the legs to the top, suggesting the roof of a building is held up by corner posts. Two drawers are held in the thick waist.
