Description
DeepL TranslateThis elegant low table would serve as an ideal little coffee table, featuring three drawers for convenient storage. Its design is in a simple, square cornered style referred to as 'zhuo' in Chinese. The original black finish, now worn, adds character and showcases a charming patina that has developed over years of use. The table's feet are designed in the classic 'horse hoof' style, a distinctive Chinese feature. The table would have been used on a 'kang' - a raised platform that served as the main living area and source of warmth during the winter months. Low-level furniture like this was commonly used for storing items and for preparing or serving meals for families sitting or kneeling directly on the kang.
