Description from the seller

Early 20th Century Chinese Side Table - Inlaid Mother-of-Pearl & Marble Top

This elegant early 20th century Chinese side table captures the harmony between natural materials and traditional craftsmanship. Its round top features a polished marble inlay with striking black and white veining, framed by a richly decorated wooden border adorned with mother-of-pearl floral motifs.

Made from solid wood, the table stands 42 cm (16.5 in) tall with a diameter of 35.5 cm (14 in). The shimmering mother-of-pearl inlay on the tabletop's edge adds a luxurious iridescence, enhanced by delicate engraved lines and hand-fitted precision. The marble center evokes the appearance of an ink-wash landscape painting, making each viewing angle visually dynamic.

Supported by four gently curved legs joined with an X-stretcher, the piece is both stable and graceful. Under the legs, protective felt pads have been added and can be removed if desired. Light surface wear and minor cracks in the wood are present, consistent with age, without compromising structural integrity.

This side table is a refined accent piece, ideal for collectors of Asian decorative arts or as a unique addition to any traditional or eclectic interior setting.
