Antique Chinese Huanghuali Carved Low Table. The table top is made of a large piece thick and short Huanghuali wood. Four braces back the top beneath. The apron under the "waist" (suoyao, the contracted part of a piece of Chinese furniture) supporting the table top is carved with dragons swimming through ruyi clouds. The four legs are fully ending with inward-curving horse hoof feet. The table is made of large timber. The generous curve of the horse-hoof feet give the table weight. This Chinese table gives the impression of luxury, strong, magnificent, charming and antique. Huanghuali, or yellow flowering pear wood, Originally know as huali or huali, the color can range from reddish-brown to golden-yellow.
