Large Chinese Hand Carved Dragon Altar Table or Rosewood Entry Table

About the Item

Constructed in the mid-19th century in the Gansu region of China, the artisan who crafted this console table adorned its elegant form with playful, hand-carved details. Trimmed with a finely beaded edge, swirling scrollwork flows along the spandrels and the apron, framing a central lingzhi motif, an auspicious emblem of longevity and immortality. Possibly once used as an altar table for honouring one's ancestors, this table's long, narrow form makes it a versatile addition to the modern home. This hand-carved Chinese Altar table was made from solid rosewood in the Early 20th Century, ranging from the period of 1900-1940's. The condition has been maintained due to this high quality rosewood used. Beautiful open caring works of two dragons with what appears to be ball fires on both sides. Wonderful details. Additional hand carving work on the sides and legs also make this console table especially pleasing to the eye. Perfect as an entry console table as well as a buffet table because of its 61" width/length, 18" depth and 38.50" height. Shows traditional Qing Dynasty style of Northern China's cultural designs. High quality craftsmanship and detailed carving, it's truly a wonderful collectible piece of decorative and functional furniture. Would enhance any setting whether traditional, contemporary, modern or a beach house.
