Ming Style Cypress (Bai Mu) Table, 18th/19th c.

The clean, simple lines of Ming furniture, reminiscent of our own Mission style in some ways, was and is much emulated. While I hesitate to say that this table is actually Ming, the warm orange tones of the cypress used to make most of this 'country' table are a hallmark of age. Probably circa 18th/early 19th century. Normal wear, protective coat of shellac added to top surface before waxing. Approximately 34”x37.75”x37.75”
