Made of thick timber, the simple painting table has straight aprons and the apron-head spandrels in cloud shape. The aprons and the spandrels are connected with small beads, which greatly strengthen the spandrels. During the Ming Dynasty, there are many varieties of tables, roughly divided into flat-edged tables and flanged tables. The function of these tables varies with their size and quality. |
