This table appears to be a miniature version of the low side tables produced in various woods during the late Ming Dynasty. Compare a similar example but with paired dragon decoration in the centre illustrated by Fang Jing Pei, Treasures of the Chinese Scholar, 1997, fig. 55, p. 70; for a box and cover worked in the same technique see Robert D. Jacobsen, Appreciating China: Gifts from Ruth and Bruce Dayton, no. 65, p. 122, where the author notes that the tianqi technique was popular for decorating fine lacquer furniture during the Ming and early Qing dynasties.
