About the Item

In the 1920-30s, Shanghai, China was swept up in the Art Deco design movement. Design, architecture, art, fashion, and furniture were all influenced by this modern movement, permeating every part of life in the bustling, vibrant city. This Art Deco dining table dates to the 1930s and was likely crafted in either Shanghai or Tianjin, two major hubs of Chinese Deco art and design. The expansive, rectangular top has burnished smooth from years of use, revealing the expressive grain patterns and luminous, warm brown color of the wood beneath. Quiet and subdued, the table has a minimal silhouette decorated only by the beveled edge that borders the top and the carved vertical reeding that textures the legs. The apron and legs are darkened by a sheer layer of lacquer, now gently faded with antique wear and a rich patina. Ideal as a dining table or writing desk, the elegant table includes a removable center leaf, to comfortably seat six or four people depending on the length. Additional Dimensions: Without Leaf: 54"W Table Apron to Floor: 25.5"H
