Description from the seller
This dark wood Chinese tea parlor set from the mid-20th century consists of a central low coffee table and four coordinating round stools. The most valuable element is the table top, richly adorned with a three-dimensional carved scene depicting people in traditional attire within a landscape featuring architectures and blooming trees, all framed by a floral border and protected by a removable shaped glass. The entire set is characterized by artisanal fretwork and raised geometric decorations that embellish the edges, stems, and shaped feet of both the table and the seating.
Table dimensions: 63x68 cm
Stool dimensions: 39x35 cm
Condition:
Please examine carefully the detailed photographs for an accurate assessment of aesthetic conditions. The wooden structure shows material defects due to normal use over time, clearly visible in the photographs.
Shipping:
Professional packing and trackable shipping, with costs calculated upon quote due to the size and weight of the pieces. Given the volume and value of the set, in-person pickup is strongly recommended at Gavirate (Varese), Lombardy, Italy, by appointment.
However, it is ALWAYS possible to obtain a national and international shipping quote.
Please study the photographs carefully as they are an integral part of the description. Tracked shipping including secure packaging, any duties and customs taxes will be at the buyer’s expense.
