    Product Description & Specifications

    Title

    Altar tables were used for ancestor worship in China & Mongolia.
    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.


    They were always long & narrow in form - a configuration seldom found in antique European furniture.
    This particular piece is constructed from pine which is commonly used in Mongolian furniture.
    Our pieces are mostly 19th century & early 20th century.
    This elegant table is ideal for use as a console table in a narrow hallway or as a lamp table behind a sofa.
