FAQs

A kang table is a low piece of furniture traditionally used in northern China on heated brick platforms known as kangs, serving as a surface for dining, writing, or tea ceremonies.

These tables were typically constructed from domestic hardwoods such as elm, northern elm, or walnut, often joined using traditional mortise and tenon techniques without metal nails.

Authentic pieces display traditional joinery, natural timber shrinkage, hand-carved details, and aged patination consistent with decades of use and exposure.

Position the low table as a central coffee table in a minimalist or eclectic living room, or use it to display ceramics and books to create a balanced focal point.

Maintain the timber by dusting regularly with a dry cloth and occasionally applying natural beeswax, avoiding direct sunlight and excessive humidity fluctuations.
