Century, Chinese Hardwood hand-carved, with hoofed feet, is this 3-tiered, rectangular-shaped, side table/end table, tea and/drinks table, and/or raised plant stand combo. A rich coloration between a deep dark fudge chocolate or burnt umber to an ebony color finish overlaid the original hardwood, with an aged, and luscious rich patina to the overall piece abounds. To each own's given desirability for use, but presence nonetheless. Inset rose marble flush mounted top, with round radius corners, and x-mitered corner, joinery to wood top, as images indicate. A gorgeous example of a late 19th. C., (1870s-1920's) of these variations, sizes and shaped tables, all with the hand carving motifs, indicative to these pieces, such as the scroll, ornamental floral carved corners, greek key, and/or interlocking central sections, (which are all dowel joinery, removable, and able to place back, all dried kiln wood.

To each their own, given the varied height space between each section, ending in these gorgeously carved hoofed feet

Think outside the box, this table may be used for a small entry console, a reading nook area, with one's favorite chair, within a den or office, between beds in a guest room, (a perfect foil), to an esthetically designed room, in living or family room, landing, etc. in any Chinoiserie lending interior, eclectic and inclusive, with a diversity of style and panache.
