清十九世紀 黃花梨方凳

of almost square form, the top of standard mitre, mortise and tenon frame construction and centred with a soft woven cane seat reinforced with palm fibre webbing, the rounded-edged frame beginning and ending in a narrow flat band, resting on four beaded-edged plain straight aprons between four round legs, the legs joined with four oval stretchers

The feet appear to have been altered to be slimmer or married. The aprons are probably later replacements.
