Each slender tripod stand is composed of turned, bamboo-form legs with knotted nodes, joined at the center and rising to support a circular removable top pierced with three openings to receive the legs. Small brass finials cap the uprights, adding a subtle decorative accent. The trays lift off and the legs fold for easy storage. One stand is very subtly higher than the other. The deep black finish has a soft sheen, with light age wear, scattered old wormholes, and slight play in the joints consistent with use. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThese elegant stands reflect the period’s taste for Japonisme and chinoiserie, with dark finishes evoking lacquer and wood shaped to resemble bamboo.
