Description

Superb Chinese altar/ console table of understated elegance, likely dating to the late Qing or early Republic period. Crafted from richly toned hardwood—possibly elm—it features a long, narrow top with clean lines . The apron is adorned with a pierced cloud motif, hallmarks of traditional Chinese design. The legs are square-sectioned and subtly chamfered, terminating in hoof-like feet, while pierced spandrels provide both structural support and decorative charm. With its balanced proportions and refined detailing, this table would make a striking addition beneath a mirror or artwork, or serve beautifully as a hallway console or display table. In excellent condition with only light marks commensurate with age.

Here at Sinclair's Antiques and Interiors we do our utmost best to ensure all our items are described and photographed to show any flaws or damage such as shrinkage splits, losses or lifts to veneer, repairs or marks. However, giving the age and the fact that each piece will have had years of polishing to create its own individual character we cannot describe every minor mark separately and therefore recommend you either visit our warehouse or request extra photographs.
