Reproduction Green Lacquer Altar Table
This striking console table is a reproduction of a Chinese green lacquer table sold at Christie's auctioneers in 2021. Green lacquer was almost unheard of in Chinese antique furniture and this console table is an exciting spin on traditional Chinese style. Perfect for a smaller room or hallway.
Console tables (also known as 'altar tables') were used for ancestor worship in China. Usually, a family ancestor portrait would be hung above the table & joss sticks lit & placed on the table for the well being of the household. They were always long & narrow in form - a configuration seldom found in antique European furniture.
Dimensions:
97 x 30.5 x 90 (wxdxh cms)
