This Chinese-style occasional table dates from 1900 and is made from amboyna and hardwood with a warm brown finish. The piece takes an Eastern-inspired form featuring a rectangular floating panel top framed by a raised edge, above a frieze adorned with carved and pierced decoration. Straight turned legs run down to carved feet, connected by low stretchers that add structural stability and visual balance. Intricate scroll motifs and carved corner spandrels decorate the upper joints, providing lightness and intricate detail to the framework. The timber displays a lively grain with rich colour and depth across the surfaces, presented in good condition throughout. Measuring 66 cm high, 61 cm wide, and 36 cm deep, the table fits neatly beside a sofa or in a gentleman's library as a lamp or side stand. It suits both traditional and eclectic home interiors as a practical surface for display or daily use in a living room, hallway, or study.

Traditional Chinese occasional tables feature joinery assembled without metal fasteners or glue, floating panel tops to accommodate timber movement, and carved corner spandrels beneath the frame.

These pieces are constructed from dense hardwoods such as amboyna, zitan, or rosewood, utilising intricate mortise-and-tenon joints designed to adjust to humidity variations.

Authentic pieces exhibit precise hand-cut joinery, natural wax or lacquer finishes, and carved architectural brackets supporting the apron and legs.

Position the table as an accent piece beside contemporary upholstered seating, or place it in an entryway as a stand for ceramics or minimal sculptural objects.

Dust regularly using a soft microfibre cloth and apply microcrystalline wax sparingly once per year while keeping the item away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
