<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jim Goodykoontz, post: 9726879, member: 82566&quot;]hi everyone.&nbsp; i just found this at a local Goodwill here in Sacramento.&nbsp; i walked by it a couple of times, not really noticing it.&nbsp; Then on the third pass, it started to call out to me.&nbsp; i thought it was some fake piece made to look old, but as i began examining it more closely i realized this is a real, completely hand-made little table.&nbsp; it stands about 30 inches in height.&nbsp; all of the artwork on the separate top is hand-painted and there&#039;s no screws to be found in the construction.&nbsp; what is really amazing is the craquelure and wear to the piece.&nbsp; the panel on which the painted art is located looks like it could be VERY old, but i&#039;m really not certain.&nbsp; it looks like it has had several coats of lacquer applied to the top as well as the sides of the top tray.&nbsp; i&#039;m hoping someone here has some background in antique Asian furniture.&nbsp; there were a lot of Chinese people in this area in the 19th century, of course.&nbsp; i&#039;m guessing it&#039;s a piece of home made furniture that&#039;s made from, perhaps, older pieces.&nbsp; but i know nothing.&nbsp; any help, or insights will be greatly appreciated...thanks</p><p>[ATTACH=full]472685[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]472686[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]472687[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]472688[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]472689[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]472690[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]472691[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]472692[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]472693[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
