Gilt Red Lacquer Buddhist Altar Table from Japan - Late 19thC
This incredibly rare Japanese altar table is a Buddhist altar table dating to the Taishō period. It is gilt and red lacquered with brass detailing. These altar tables are often referred to as 'offering tables,' 'front desks,' or Kyozukue
The table has gilded paneling over a cloud carved apron and sits atop scroll legs wrapping around sacred hoju jewels. It likely would have originally been found in a Japanese Buddhist temple in front of a larger altar called a shumidan.
As with most Japanese furniture this piece is in excellent condition considering its age.
