The circular table top has a framed edge and white marble inlay, with a waistband beneath, embellished with an apron featuring droplet-shaped pierced carvings. At the lower inward bends, the S-curved legs are separated by plain cross pieces (also made of rounded wood). A plain panel beneath the cross pieces is connected to them with an engraved carving of auspicious lotus flowers, accented by cloud-shaped adornments. The table is accompanied by four stools, all of which are made with similar craftsmanship.
