[QUOTE="raisu, post: 129840, member: 1909"]Hi cluttered closet, Thank you for your reply. That makes sense. They could be Japanese. It hadn't occurred to me. There is no slot for a 4th table to go in - no ridge under the third table like the other ones. Just from am aesthetic point of view, I don't think the set would balance with a fourth. So O do think it is the original 3 (but I'm happy to be disproved). I'm very familiar with Japanese culture and of course there wouldn't be a 4th table if they're Japanese. I'll look closer at the paintings. They were my grandmother's for many decades. I'm not sure if to sell or keep. I'm not really attached to them but they were one of the constant pieces I always remember she had. She didn't look after the tops! I'm in the UK.[/QUOTE]
