Antique Furniture |
|
Each week we highlight a new and interesting
piece of antique Chinese furniture!
Tibetan
Coffee Table
This short, small square Tibetan coffee table
would be ideal for any modern decorated living room. Especially,
if the rest of the room is in one or two tones of some
yellow or green color , this item on full display in the
center of the room would make the old appearance of your
room completely changed and give it a perfect center piece
as a contrast to the rest of the room around it.
