About

八仙桌 - Eight Immortals Table

For generations, 八仙桌 (Eight Immortals Table/table for eight) has been the most important piece of furniture for many families in China. The table is constructed perfectly square and consists of a wooden bench on the each side that seats a total of eight. The name of 八仙桌 is believed to have come from the tale of the Eight Immortals in Chinese mythology. Each immortal's magical power can be transferred to a vessel that can bestow life or destroy evils. Together, these eight vessels are called the "Covert Eight Immortals". Taoists have always revered them because they are the symbols of good fortune and a popular element in the secular Chinese culture. “Eight Immortals” not only symbolize the diversity of the talents but also represent the power of unity.
