About the Item

This low Tibetan table from the mid-19th century is richly decorated from end to end with vibrant red lacquer and hand-painted embellishment. The square table has a waisted design with inset paneled sides and corner legs ending in scroll feet. Each of the eight panels is painted with a bouquet of pink peonies, universal symbols of love and beauty. Two of the panels open as hinged doors to reveal an open interior compartment. Years of use have subdued the cabinet's once-brilliant color palette and imparted a lustrous, antique patina. Additional Dimensions: Door Opening: 12.5"W x 9"H
