Ming tables are divided into two main types, those with legs at the four corners, zhuo, and those with recessed legs called an. Tables with tops that end with everted flanges usually have recessed legs and there is a large body of surviving Ming dynasty examples. Everted end tables with legs at the four corners like the present lot are very rare, with only a few extant examples. However, the design is illustrated in the Ming dynasty book Sancai Tuhui (Pictorial Encyclopedia of Heaven, Earth and Man) and is referred to as “yanji” (Fig. 1), so it must have been a main category of the time.

This item is made of a type of Dalbergia wood which is subject to CITES export/import restrictions since 2 January 2017. This item can only be shipped to addresses within Hong Kong or collected from our Hong Kong saleroom and office unless a CITES re-export permit is granted.
