This exceptional antique altar table measures 104" inch long and is in its original condition. Crafted in the late 18th century, this altar table is distinguished by its intricately hand-carved ruyi panel legs and 4 pairs ruyi spandrels on both front and back. A ruyi, meaning 'as desired' in Chinese, embodies both ceremonial significance in Chinese Buddhism and symbolizes good fortune in folklore. The table showcases naturally aged wooden top and robust construction, adorned with delightful patinas, age-appropriate dents, and graceful signs of wear and tear.
