Chinese Lacquered & Incised Coffee Table By Charles Gracie & Son

Coromandel is a Chinese art form used to decorate furniture. The most common pieces that are decorated are screens, chests and occasional tables. The technique involves applying layers of wet clay to the wood, baking them in order to harden the clay, then applying several layers of lacquer. Once the lacquer dries, intricate patterns are carved on to the furniture, which is then painted with a protective finish.

the Top Of This Table Is An Origional 19th C Panel With A Landscaped Scene Of A Pavillion And Courtisans,built Into A Newer Frame With Classic Chinese Base Ending In Bracket Feet.
