Ming-Style Chinoiserie Side Table with Burl Inlay & Beveled Glass Insert

Annihilate the landfill, adopt a table that already has excellent bones

This is the kind of side table that anchors a reading corner with quiet authority. Classic Ming-style silhouette meets 1980s American craftsmanship: carved apron with pierced cloud motifs, gorgeous burl wood veneer inlay framing a beveled glass insert, and those distinctive horse-hoof feet. The dark mahogany-stained frame shows honest wear at the feet and some minor surface scratches, but the structure is absolutely solid. Glass is pristine. Perfect scale for Cambridge apartments where every square foot counts.

The D'Beetle Difference

• Burl Veneer Detail Work: The golden burl wood band surrounding the glass insert shows beautiful cathedral grain figuring. Approximately 3-inch width creates a warm contrast against the dark frame.

• Traditional Chinese Joinery: Carved cloud-motif apron with pierced cutouts on all four sides. Horse-hoof feet and clean squared legs typical of Ming dynasty influence.

• Practical Square Proportions: Appears approximately 26" square x 22" high. Beveled glass insert lifts out for easy cleaning or transport.
