Description
Once a fixture in ancestral halls and temples, Chinese altar tables were used to honour family heritage and offer tributes to ancestors or deities. Today, they bring a beautiful sense of tradition and storytelling into modern interiors. The BASHIRA table, dating to around 1920, is a striking example, finished in a weathered turquoise lacquer that reveals layers of history and texture beneath.
The classic narrow form and upward-sweeping ends reflect the elegance of traditional Chinese craftsmanship. Decorative carved spandrels add softness to the structure and showcase skilled joinery. The rich turquoise tones add vibrancy and freshness to a space, perfect for lifting neutral palettes or balancing darker woods. This is a piece that brings both colour and calm, wherever it’s placed.
