Dated to the early 20th century, this wine table has a classic design, featuring rounded legs, double side stretchers, simple spandrels, and humpback stretchers beneath each apron. Placed throughout the Qing-dynasty home, recessed leg side tables such as this were used for elevating instruments, serving food or tea, or as a gathering spot for drinking rice wine. The narrow form of this particular table suggests it may have been used as an altar for ancestor worship, laden with offerings and incense. Cloaked in a rich, dark lacquer finish, this elmwood table is ideal as a console or side table in the modern home.

“Over the years, I’ve incorporated many pieces from PAGODA RED into my designs. Not only can they balance new furnishings (and often new construction) by feeling more established, but the pieces emanate a sense of rich history, often leaving you wondering where they were in a previous life. These beautiful pieces carefully hand-selected by the team at PAGODA RED, coupled with their unbelievable customer service, make them a must-have for any home.”
