Long Description
I was given this table by my mother whos uncle had previously purchased it for a girlfriend. After some research I believe the piece is a 19th century Chinese dragon table from the Ching (Qing) dynasty. There is an inscription on the bottom that reads "Given to Beth Hahn Issac Washington, Mr. Kim". There are 4 legs each with roman numerals on them, which match to corresponding roman numerals on the bottom of the table. As for its condition there are some bruise marks in the wood, a raised tooth that is missing from one of the two dragons, a chip from one of the corners, and a post missing from one of the 4 removalable legs. Otherwise, it is in relatively great shape.
