Antique Ming Style Yu Wood Single Board Top Narrow Bench with an exquisitely executed beaded cloud shape spandrel. This bench is particularly well proportioned and structurally well made compared to other ones with similar looks. It is generously built with northern Chinese elm with a rounded splayed leg design, all joined together with the traditional techniques without metal nails. This bench has been well preserved with the bottom of the feet slightly worn and has been lightly refinished recently. Its solid build and heavy weight makes it a very sturdy bench to sit on or to place at any space such as an entryway. 19th century or older.
