Subject:HUANGHUALI TABLE?

Posted By: Marbuy Wed, May 01, 2019 Tim - Thank you for your response. I understand what you're saying about the lustre of the wood grain. I actually have a cabinet with that type of wood inlay. I'll post separately. Would you mind taking a look and giving your opinion? We inhereted several pieces of chinese art and furniture, not knowing much about them, obviously. |

Posted By: TimG Thu, May 02, 2019 Except for very early & rare designs, in today's market there is not much value with collectors, but I've seen these tables sell upwards of $800 and some into the very low thousands in the designer market - their criteria for price often reflects the size of their clients wallet more so than the quality or rarity of the piece.Keep posting pics...I'll do my best to help...and so will others in this forum. |

Posted By: Roger Tue, Jul 05, 2022 Actually more likely this is Chinese Locust wood - looks a bit like Elm but the grain tends to be darker and much more pronounced. |
