About the Item
This elegant console table was made 150 years ago in China’s Shanxi province and likely served as a family’s altar where they paid respects to revered ancestors. The altar table is crafted of fine hardwood with carved spandrels, everted ends, cut-out sides, and straight legs ending in gently splayed feet. Richly aged from centuries of use, this altar adds storied charm to modern interiors as a sofa table or hallway console.
