China, Qing dynasty, 19th centuryDimensions: 11.75" (30cm) H, 33.75" (85.8cm) W, 22.25" (56.5cm) DepthA huanghuali wood kangzhuo or low table from the Qing dynasty. The rectangular paneled top and carved high waist follows a carved apron that is supported by square-sectioned legs ending in hoof feet. The table is composed of mortise and tenon joinery typical of Chinese furniture construction. The edges of the horizontal apron and the vertical legs are punctured with protruding auspicious lingzhi fungus shaped forms. The apron and legs include abstract linear and circular forms. The gently flowing grain of the rare huanghuali hardwood is the central decorative focus of the pair of chairs. The emphasis on materiality is an expression of the restrained elegance that typifies furniture of Ming and Qing dynasties. Of honey-gold and reddish-brown hue, the ripples of the wood grain harmoniously blend into one another. The wood grain creates a sumptuous surface design accompanied by minimal ornament.
