The 'horse hoof' shaped feet and curved aprons that stretch between each leg give it a distinctive oriental feel but otherwise the style is quite plain

Country Side Table colour-light-elm The butterfly is a symbolThis lovely little table, with a single drawer at the top and a shelf at the bottom, is reminiscent of the Chinese tea tables that would be positioned between a pair of chairs for serving tea or other refreshment. Our updated version, with the beautiful, natural finish showing off the deep grain of the elm wood, works well as a side table or next to a bed. The 'horse hoof' feet add a further element of classic Chinese style.
