Description

An exceptional late 18th / early 19th century Qing dynasty Chinese low table or daybed, finely crafted from elm and with rattan-covered solid elm top. The table features a rectangular well-proportioned frame, raised on cabriole legs terminating in inward scroll feet. The apron is beautifully carved with a classic key-fret motif, centred by a finely carved floral medallion.

This piece displays refined simplicity characteristic of Qing dynasty furniture, combined with sturdy construction suitable for everyday use. The table has developed a rich, warm patina, enhanced by centuries of gentle wear. The rattan covering remains in good condition, with minor, cosmetic wear consistent with age and use.

The table is in very good, antique condition, with evidence of minor, sympathetic repairs undertaken over its long history.

A rare and authentic example of Qing Dynasty Chinese furniture, suitable for use as a low table or daybed.
