Low Rectangular Antique Coffee Table with Woven Rattan Top

About the Item

A Chinese late Qing Dynasty period low Kang coffee table from the early 20th century with inset rattan top and horse hoof feet. Delve into the rich history of Chinese furniture design with this low Kang coffee table from the late Qing Dynasty period. This early 20th-century table merges time-honored tradition with practical functionality, reflecting the architectural nuances of its origin. Its form echoes the Kang tables of the Ming Dynasty, evoking nostalgia while fitting perfectly into modern interiors. The table features a rectangular top inset with rattan, a common and practical element in traditional Chinese furniture. This beautifully woven rattan inset introduces a tactile contrast to the solid wood structure, augmenting the piece's visual interest and authenticity. Below, the straight legs add a touch of grace to the sturdy construction. Each leg terminates in an elegant horse hoof foot, a design detail that reflects the refined aesthetics of classical Chinese furniture. These distinctive feet provide a grounded yet stylish base for this versatile table. As an evolution of the Kang table – originally designed for use on a raised, three-walled platform – this piece serves beautifully as a coffee table, lending your space a dash of oriental charm. With this Qing Dynasty Kang table, you're not just acquiring a piece of furniture, but a piece of Chinese history, replete with cultural significance and artisanal dedication.
