Vintage Japanese Buddhist Altar Lacquered Offering Table
Painted with black lacquer with some red accents around the edges, this vintage Japanese Buddhist kyozukue offering table with a simple shape and portability is a stunning focal point in any home altar. This piece folds down flat and has a textured top surface. It also comes with a silk fabric mat that both protects the top from damage and serves as decoration. The mat is a sage green with gold and purple and features images of Ho-oh.
This piece is typically placed in front of a Buddhist altar, and the original usage is for reading sutras, but it is also used as a stand for placing an incense burner or ring an orin bell (singing bowl).
