I am selling one of the pieces from my house as I just can't find "the right place" for it amongst the rest of my collection. It is rather sizable as far as parlor tables go (34"h x 24.5"w x 30.5"d) as most tables of the period are only 27-30" tall. Roman columns, acanthus leaves and dolphin feet adorn the very intricate metal work. I'm not sure of the metal(s) that make up the stand but the two table surfaces are Onyx marble. The top appears to be original as there is a name written in 19th century style script on the underside. The bottom marble may be original or replacement but is cut perfectly and is an excellent match. No condition problems that I am aware of. Write me for more information if you are interested.
