This gorgeous 19th-century console table was finely crafted from walnut by an artisan in China's Shanxi province. The narrow form would have been ideal for displaying painted scrolls or works of calligraphy. The plank-top surface is supported by square legs linked by floor stretchers and inset with floating panels. These panels are pierced with ruyi designs, auspicious symbols of good fortune and longevity. A fine beaded edge trims the decorative elements, coiling into scalloped cloud-form spandrels atop each leg. The original dark lacquer finish has aged beautifully from centuries of use, lending rich texture to the walnut construction.

“Over the years, I’ve incorporated many pieces from PAGODA RED into my designs. Not only can they balance new furnishings (and often new construction) by feeling more established, but the pieces emanate a sense of rich history, often leaving you wondering where they were in a previous life. These beautiful pieces carefully hand-selected by the team at PAGODA RED, coupled with their unbelievable customer service, make them a must-have for any home.”
