Small 1900s Low Square End Table with Rattan Top

About the Item

A Chinese late Qing Dynasty period footstool from the early 20th century with rattan top, carved apron and side stretchers. Discover the perfect blend of function and art in this early 20th-century Chinese footstool from the late Qing Dynasty period. A good example of traditional Chinese craftsmanship, this footstool features a rectangular rattan inset top with elegantly rounded corners. The rattan, boasting its natural texture and color, adds an organic touch to the design, establishing a pleasing contrast to the solid wood construction. Supporting the top are sturdy, straight legs connected by a carved apron. The scalloped lines on the apron, present on both the front and back, lends an appealing visual rhythm to the piece. Slightly simpler carved aprons adorn the sides, creating an engaging variation in design detail. Ensuring structural stability are the side stretchers – double in design – and a single stretcher each at the front and back. This arrangement of stretchers not only fortifies the stool but also offers an interesting visual element that adds depth to the piece. Ideal for traditional or Asian-inspired interiors, this late Qing Dynasty footstool is more than a practical addition. It's an exquisite piece of history that speaks volumes of China's rich heritage in furniture design and woodwork. Immerse your space in the captivating charm of this footstool and let it tell its centuries-old story.

  • Chinese Limestone Foot Rest, c. 1900
    Located in Chicago, IL
    This early 20th century foot rest from China's Shanxi province is simply designed with a rounded body and four square feet.
