A Chinese tall shrine offering table, often referred to as a "god shelf" (shén bàn, 神案) or altar table (tán zhuō, 壇桌) in traditional contexts, is an elevated wooden stand or cabinet designed for ancestor worship, deity veneration, and spiritual rituals in Chinese folk religion, Taoism, and Buddhism. These pieces bridge ancient Confucian principles of filial piety and ancestral reverence with practical home decor, serving as a sacred focal point where offerings like incense, fruit, tea, or joss paper are presented. Unlike low consoles, the "tall" variants—typically 80-100 cm (31-39 inches) in height or more—elevate the shrine to eye level or higher, creating a commanding presence in living rooms, ancestral halls, or temples. They originated in imperial China, evolving from simple spirit tablet holders to ornate structures during the Ming and Qing dynasties, and remain integral to festivals like Qingming or Zhongyuan.
