Late Qing Dynasty 1900s Low Kang Coffee Table with Humpback Stretchers

About the Item

A Chinese late Qing Dynasty period low Kang coffee table from the early 20th century with pierced apron, pillar strut motifs and humpback stretchers. Reflecting the artistic traditions of Chinese carpentry, this early 20th century Qing Dynasty Kang table is a perfect blend of aesthetic appeal and historical charm. Stemming from the innovative Kang tables of the Ming Dynasty, this low coffee table combines classic elements with modern functionality, making it an attractive piece for contemporary interiors. The table features a rectangular top, distinctive with its rounded corners and beveled inner edges, projecting a soft yet visually compelling design. The table's low stature, a characteristic of traditional Kang tables, gives it a cozy appeal, perfect for intimate gatherings or quiet evenings at home. Adding to its visual richness, the table is adorned with a gracefully pierced apron, emulating pillar strut motifs - a testament to the intricate detailing often seen in late Qing Dynasty furniture. The humpback stretchers provide structural strength and lend an interesting architectural element to the overall design. The table's cylindrical legs, a common feature in traditional Chinese furniture, enhance its stability while preserving the elegance of its design. Subtle reeded accents lend a further layer of texture and depth to this exquisite piece. Whether as a centrepiece for a living room or as a practical addition to your space, this Qing Dynasty Kang coffee table brings with it a rich narrative from a significant era in Chinese history. Its timeless design, blended with traditional artistry, makes it a charming yet functional piece for any home decor, paying homage to the refined aesthetics of ancient Chinese craftsmanship.
