Chinese Low Kang Table, c. 1900
About the Item
During winter in the colder provinces of China, life revolved around the kang, a heated brick platform that household members would sit or recline upon. Placed on top of the kang, low tables provided a convenient surface for dining, drinking tea, or playing games. This early 20th-century kang table follows the classic form, featuring a waisted apron, a rectangular floating-panel top, and short cabriole legs. A versatile surface, this table fits in to modern interiors as a low coffee table or a display stand to elevate a fine sculpture.
