Chinese Hongmu Kang Table

About the Item

During winter in the colder provinces of China, life revolved around the kang, a heated brick platform that household members would sit or recline upon. Placed on top of the kang, low tables provided a convenient surface for dining, drinking tea, or playing games. This Ming dynasty kang table follows the classic form, featuring a waisted apron, a rectangular floating-panel top, and short hooved legs. A versatile surface, this rich brown hardwood table can add a sense of warmth to any modern interior.
