This elegant Chinese altar table is made in classic Ming style dating from the 19th century and is originally from Shanxi. They were always long & narrow in form - a configuration seldom found in antique European furniture.

Altar tables were used for ancestor worship in China. This piece was once fully black lacquered and with use, the wood grain is partially visible.
Usually, a family ancestor portrait would be hung above the table & joss sticks lit & placed on the table for the well-being of the household.
