Why Sellingantiques dated this piece to THE 19TH CENTURY:
Floating top panels in mitred frames: traditional joinery allowing the timber to move.
Contraction gaps along the top panels: natural shrinkage of hardwood over many decades.
Hand-pierced scrollwork aprons: crisply carved detail fitted into the leg junctions.
Square legs with carved hoof feet: classic late Qing pedestal table design.
Gentle softening and polish wear around the feet: natural handling over time.

This is an independent date and photo anotation report compiled by Sellingantiques using its own proprietary system. The process uses the photographs shown on this page. The system is never told the date the dealer has declared. This report shows that the two dates corroborate.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

A pair of 19th-century Chinese hardwood stands in the Qing Dynasty style work as side tables or occasional tables. Each dark brown timber piece has an inset rectangular panel top, a carved openwork apron under the top on each side, a lower tier shelf, and straight square legs with simple straight feet. The visible surfaces display a polished dark brown finish with clear natural wood grain patterns running across the tops and shelves. All structural parts remain intact with no signs of damage, repair, or missing elements. Each stand measures 80 cm high, 41.5 cm wide, and 30.5 cm deep. They suit placement in an empty corner of a gentleman's library or living room to hold lamps, decorative flower arrangements, or everyday objects.

FAQs

Historically crafted during the Qing Dynasty, these tall wooden stands were designed to elevate decorative items such as porcelain vases, scholar stones, incense burners, or potted bonsai plants within traditional living areas.

These pieces were typically constructed from dense tropical hardwoods such as zitan, hongmu, or rosewood using traditional joinery, including mortise-and-tenon joints, panel inserts, and hand-carved decorative aprons without the use of nails.

Authentic period pieces showcase precise joinery with subtle movement gaps for timber expansion, natural hand-carved relief work on the aprons, and wear on the undersides and feet consistent with age.

A pair of stands works effectively placed on either side of a doorway, flanking a sideboard, or positioned in room corners to support contemporary table lamps, sculptural ceramics, or indoor greenery.

Maintain the hardwood surface by dusting with a soft, dry cloth and applying high-grade bees-wax periodically. Keep the timber away from direct heat sources and extreme humidity fluctuations to prevent cracking or warping.
