About the Item
A Chinese altar console table with everted flanges, cloud-form brackets, and a warm lacquered finish in shades of red, orange, and brown. The table’s architectural form is defined by a long, rectangular plank top with raised flanges at either end, creating a dynamic, upward gesture that draws the eye. Below, the shaped apron is punctuated by carved cloud motifs—symbols often associated with harmony and transcendence in traditional Chinese design—lending the piece both balance and visual lift.
The four legs are subtly splayed and accented with vertical reeded lines, grounding the composition while echoing the linear rhythm of the top. On each side, openwork stretchers connect the legs with refined, pierced carvings that add structure without heaviness. The back apron, left unadorned, reinforces the emphasis on frontal presentation, suggesting the table was designed to stand against a wall or serve as a ceremonial focal point.
The lacquer surface shows a rich interplay of hues—deep red, burnt orange, and darkened brown—enhancing the wood grain and highlighting the craftsmanship in the carved details. Though understated in silhouette, the piece carries a quiet grandeur, making it well-suited for use as a console, sofa table, or as a display platform for ceramics, sculpture, or books.
Whether placed in a minimalist interior or layered into a more eclectic space, this altar table lends gravitas and symmetry, offering both function and sculptural presence.

Qing Dynasty Period 19th Century Altar Console Table with Carved Spandrels
Located in Yonkers, NY
A Qing Dynasty period altar table from the 19th century, with carved spandrels, everted flanges and dark patina. Crafted during the Qing Dynasty period, this exquisite 19th-century altar table captivates with its elegant proportions and rich dark patina. The table features a narrow rectangular top, beautifully flanked by everted flanges that add a subtle sense of grandeur to the piece. The apron, adorned with delicately carved scrolling spandrels, showcases the exceptional craftsmanship typical of Qing Dynasty furniture, where every detail was carefully considered to enhance the overall aesthetic.
The table is supported by slightly splayed legs, adding a touch of dynamism to its otherwise stately silhouette. These legs are connected by double side stretchers, ensuring both stability and visual harmony. The interplay between the straight lines of the table and the curved motifs of the spandrels creates a balanced composition that is as pleasing to the eye as it is functional.
