Chinese Carved Zitan Table-Form Stand, Republic Period, Mid-20th Century
About the Item
A finely carved zitan wood display stand in the form of a round table, China, Republic Period, mid 20th century.
The circular display stand carved from rare and precious zitan wood. Fashioned as a classical Chinese round table, the stand is supported by five cabriole legs with ruyi shaped feet, all joined by a shaped stretcher.
The apron finely carved with a bat above each leg, and a carved and pierced ruyi cartouche. Smaller ruyi have been carved in relief.
The stand also features a narrow waist carved with a double lotus pedestal design and pierced with a series of oblong windows.
The top of the display stand has been left plain, highlighting the stunning grain of the zitan, with the tell tale "crab claw" markings and golden threads.
Zitan is one of the two most prized hardwoods in the Chinese classical furniture making tradition (the other being Huanghuali). It is an extremely dense tropical hardwood that lends itself to fine and intricate carving. Pieces made from zitan were historically restricted to members of the court or very wealthy families.

Vintage Chinese Finely Carved Yellow Pixiu Archaic Dragon Seal w/Stand 20th Cent
Located in Richmond, CA
This vintage Chinese seal is an exquisite example of craftsmanship, intricately carved to feature a Pixiu, the legendary son of the dragon, perched majestically atop a square mound. The Pixiu is vividly depicted, complete with water flowing from its mouth and eyes that bulge with mythical intensity. Pixiu is considered a creature of wealth and is believed to have the power to attract and protect its owner's fortunes. It is often used in Feng Shui for this purpose. Pixiu figures are often used as talismans or ornaments to attract wealth and good fortune.
The square mound itself serves as a canvas for archaic decorations, featuring stylized dragons that are intricately carved into the detailed ground. These dragons not only add aesthetic appeal but also imbue the piece with historical and cultural significance, linking it to ancient Chinese traditions and folklore.
What elevates this seal further is the material's yellow hue, which displays characteristics of the highly prized field yellow "Tian Huang...
