Combining a high-drama, kaleidoscopic geometric top with a wonderfully substantial, bench-made solid wood construction, these tables offer incredible restoration potential or a striking standalone presence for an eclectic interior.

Design & Construction Detail:
The octagonal tops showcase an intricate, repeating geometric mosaic parquetry top pieced together with contrasting tone-on-tone fine exotic hardwoods. The bodies are supported by four sweeping, outward-curved legs wrapped in deeply striped Macassar ebony veneer, joined to the frame with solid wood cross-supports. These legs gracefully descend onto an elegant, multi-tiered octagonal stepped base veneered in highly figured bird's-eye maple over a solid wood core.

Dimensions:
• Height: 24.25 in.
• Width: 23.5 in.
• Depth: 23.5 in.

Condition Report & Restoration Notes:
Offered in Fair vintage condition, presenting an excellent opportunity for a professional refinishing project or an enthusiastic collector.

• Structure: Mechanically excellent. The frames, legs, and solid bases are rock-solid, incredibly heavy, and sit perfectly sturdy and level.
• Finish: The original clear coat on the parquetry tops exhibits cloudy, milky white hazing/blushing due to age and ambient moisture exposure over the decades.
• Veneer: One table features a substantial veneer chip measuring approximately 1/2" x 3/8" along the upper edge profile, along with minor localized veneer losses, fine hairline finish crazing, and light edge scuffs.

Priced adaptively to accommodate cosmetic restoration needs. Please review all high-resolution images carefully to evaluate the condition. See less
