Known as a calligrapher’s table, this expansive, early 19th-century table offered a scholar ample surface space to paint or practice calligraphy. In order to cultivate uncluttered and inspiring surroundings, only a few carefully arranged objects would have been placed upon the table, such as a brush pot, inkstone, or table screen. With round legs and finely beaded spandrels, the table stands at a height that would have allowed the artist to work while standing up. Made of northern elmwood, the table features a beautifully aged lacquer finish, adding a rustic yet elegant note to the farmhouse kitchen or main room.

“Over the years, I’ve incorporated many pieces from PAGODA RED into my designs. Not only can they balance new furnishings (and often new construction) by feeling more established, but the pieces emanate a sense of rich history, often leaving you wondering where they were in a previous life. These beautiful pieces carefully hand-selected by the team at PAGODA RED, coupled with their unbelievable customer service, make them a must-have for any home.”
