The top shows age-proper patinas, dents, knots, naturally aged lines, spots, and wear and tear. All joints are still firm and tight. A fine example of traditional Chinese joinery: Every piece of wood is calculated to interlock seamlessly to provide structural strength and enhance the beauty of the design. This Asian table with its brown color, and beautiful aged top will make an elegant wine table, accent table, or console table in a hallway, entryway, living room, or dining room.
