A plain but exquisite tall antique Chinese tea table. It has no carving at all and makes for a very elegant well proportioned piece of furniture. The wood is Blackwood and shows beautiful graining and patina. Blackwood is noted for its great density and weight and is highly prized in China. It would have been used as a tea table. It comes from Guangdong in Southern China.
This particular Chinese table has one small lower shelf. It is extremely heavy, indicating the excellent quality of the wood.
