Chinese Petite Round Leg Wine Table, circa 1850

About the Item

Straight lines and subtle curves flow together seamlessly in this elegant mid-19th century table made in Shanxi province. We love the way its humpback curves and rounded aprons sweep into simple stretcher bars and round legs, invoking the classic style and aesthetic restraint of Ming-dynasty design. Made for sharing and offering wine and spirits, the table once gathered together convivial imbibers who engaged in group toasts and robust consumption. Additional dimensions: Table apron to floor: 23.25".

    Located in Chicago, IL
    This mid-19th century fang deng (square stool) was made in Hebei province and crafted of elm foraged from the forests of northern China. The stretchers encircling the outer edges of the rounded legs highlight the masterful carpentry employed to create this very pure and simple form in the most elegant Ming fashion. This detail gives the design a natural flow and references bent bamboo. Chinese carpenters during the Qing dynasty held simplicity and craftsmanship in equal regard. In this spirit they emulated the simpler forms of bamboo furniture making that were popular in earlier times...
