George Zee Asian Modern Chinese Hand Carved Teak Nesting Side Tables Set Of 4 F*S

This is a gorgeous set of 4, hand-carved, bleached and washed teak nesting side tables manufactured in 1957 by George Zee & Co. George studied at the Princeton Seminary, then went into the furniture business in Shanghai in the 1930s. He was good at attracting Western clients, and his company became one of the leading Chinese furniture makers in Shanghai. Just before the communists took over in 1949, Zee left Shanghai for Hong Kong, where he re-established his business. The company made carved teak and camphor wood boxes, trunks, tables, and cabinets. He labeled them with metal tags. Each piece had a serial number and came with a guarantee that it would never split or warp thanks to his special kiln-dried technique. Zee died in 1967

George was right about his kiln-drying process, these pieces are solid and the finish is original and exceptional The sizes of the 4 tables are:

21 in x 15 in x 26 in tall
17 in x 13 in x 24 in tall
