The spare, economic lines of the recessed-leg table make it one of the most elegant furniture forms. The basic proportions were adapted to make large painting tables, smaller tables, benches and stools.
Throughout the Ming period, recessed-leg tables are seen in woodblock prints and paintings, often adorned with antiques and placed within a variety of interiors, including the scholar's studio. Compare with an exemple exhibited in the Musée Guimet, Paris, illustrated in Ming: L'Âge d'or du mobilier chinois, Réunion Des Musées Nationaux, Paris, 2003, cat. no. 42, pp. 148-149. A huanghuali recessed-leg table, dated to the seventeenth century, is illustrated by R. D. Jacobsen and N. Grindley, Classical Chinese Furniture in the Minneapolis Institute of Arts, Minneapolis, 1999, p. 123, no. 40. Another table of similar form, but longer in length was sold at Christie’s New York, 23-24 September 2021, lot 998. The present lot may be closely compared to the table sold at Christie's New York, 22-23 September 2022, lot 792.
