Chinese Lacquered Square Center Table, c. 1850
About the Item
A flourish of curves adds graceful counterpoint to this table’s square profile, each straight leg topped by decorative scroll corners that flow into a scalloped apron. The legs are further decorated by straight stretchers inset with cutout panels.
Crafted of lacquered elm in the mid-19th century, the table is modeled after summer-winter tables that could be converted into low kang tables for outdoor use. Found at the center of social activity, square tables such as this were used on a daily basis for dining, serving tea, or playing games.
