The low-lying kang table, a kind of daybed, provided not only a place to retire but also a space to share tea, a game, or conversation. Deceptively simple, this 19th-century table made of northern elmwood reveals its handcrafted artistry in petite legs that curl around a “pearl of wisdom,” a Chinese decorative motif that influenced the ball and claw foot seen in Chippendale furniture.
