A rootwood stand, Qing dynasty 清 木根雕擺件

Rootwood furniture, whether natural or contrived, was highly favoured by the literati for its direct association with nature and frequently appears in genre paintings in various forms including stands, tables, and chairs.

無論是自然形成還是人工雕刻的根雕，都因其與自然的直接聯繫而深受文人喜愛，並常以支架、桌、椅等各種形式出現在繪畫中。
