Height 7 inches.
Size diameter 44 inches. It has 6 legs to hold the table. It comes in 2 pieces. The side border is crafted with mother of pearls. Kindly refer to the attached pictures for reference. Thank you very much for all the help rendered. `

These are stands for a set of half round tables. They are made from hongmu and inlaid with pearl shell. They are made in the late 19th- early 20TH century in the Canton- Hong Kong area of the Quandong province, southern China. These were probably made for export to neighboring Vietnam and southeast Asia. They are not worth very much without the semilune tables.
