This table is quite distinctive for the particularly clean geometric lines of the spandrels and the elegant highlighting created by the boxwood inlay. The economy of line is a trait associated with Kangxi furniture which tends towards a strong but spare aesthetic. Additionally the bold, linear spandrels reference a trend towards archaism much admired by the literati of the period. For similar examples of recessed leg table with archaistic geometric spandrels see Hu Desheng, The Palace Museum Collection, A Treasury of Ming and Qing Palace Furniture, vol. I, Beijing, 2007, figs. 294, a huanghuali table with black lacquered trim and top panel and 295, of zitan wood.
