About the Item
Used as a family altar table or for general storage, this 19th century coffer is decorated with intricate carvings of round chrysanthemum blossoms, symbols of autumn and joviality. The table rests on straight legs that link to the rectangular table top with delicate trailing vine spandrels. The original dark lacquer finish has aged beautifully over a century of use, for a weathered appearance that only time can achieve.

This homage to an ancestral form, combined with traditional mortise-and-tenon joinery techniques, created an elegant, functional chair that has endured for centuries and inspired many contemporary furniture designers...
