Proto-Sino-Tibetan: *k(h)rǝ̆j ( ~ q(h)-)
Meaning: table, stand, chair
Chinese: *krǝjʔ small table, a stand; stool.
Tibetan: khri seat, chair; throne; couch.
Comments: Coblin 54, Gong 63. The root may be ultimately the same as *k(hr)iaj foot (q. v.) - if the original meaning of the OCh. and Tib. forms was something like "stand, table with legs".
