Chinese display stand made of solid rosewood, showcasing the elegance of traditional joinery and the refined aesthetic of classical Chinese furniture. The stand features a square top supported by four straight legs, connected by an intricately carved openwork apron in a key-fret and ruyi motif, all assembled without the use of nails or modern hardware.
Hand crafted in solid rosewood hardwood, this piece highlights the rich reddish-brown hue and tight grain characteristic of rosewood. A lower stretcher base provides stability and structural harmony. Made in the 20th century, it reflects time-honored woodworking techniques passed down through generations of Chinese artisans.
Traditionally used to display a scholar’s object, bonsai, or favored vessel, this stand is both decorative and functional—suited for any refined interior.
