Each table is beautifully crafted with a gilt metal base featuring sweeping curved legs united by a circular stretcher. The eye-catching rope twist swags and hanging tassels create a wonderfully sophisticated and distinctive appearance.
The tables retain their original circular verde marble tops, each displaying striking natural veining and rich tonal variation. The contrast between the elegant gilt metal framework and the deep green marble creates a luxurious look that complements both traditional and contemporary interiors.
Perfect as side lamp tables, they would look superb flanking a sofa, fireplace or bed. Their unusual tassel decoration and refined proportions set them apart from the majority of marble topped occasional tables found on the market today.
Decorative side lamp tables such as these were designed to display lamps, bronzes and other objets d’art whilst adding elegance and interest to a room. The classical rope and tassel motif reflects the influence of grand Italian and French interiors of the period.
Condition Report
Very good antique condition with age related wear to the gilt finish and minor surface marks consistent with age and use. The marble tops are in good order with attractive natural figuring. A highly decorative and practical pair ready for use.
