Elm is an iconic wood in antique Chinese furniture, prized for its strength, stability, and rich grain. Over the decades, the wood develops a subtle patina that reveals the depth of its texture and the uniqueness of each fiber.

The pronounced relief of the top, tool marks, stabilized old cracks, and natural variations in the wood tell the story of this piece and highlight its authenticity. Every object we select embodies the Wabi-sabi spirit, celebrating the beauty of imperfections and the charm of materials shaped by time. With its generous proportions and sculptural presence, this coffee table becomes a true focal point in any space, bringing warmth, texture, and character to a contemporary or timeless interior.

Please note that this piece is unique and exhibits variations in color, texture, patina, relief, and wear that attest to its authenticity and history.
