Marble Side Table Appraisal

Marble Top and Ornate Metal Side Table

This is a classical side table featuring a circular marble top resting upon an ornate metal base. The tabletop appears to be crafted from white or light-colored marble, characterized by distinct grey or brownish veining that flows across its surface, indicative of natural stone variations. The edges of the marble top are smooth and rounded. The metal base exhibits a gold or bronzed tone, suggesting materials such as brass, bronze, or a similarly finished alloy. The base is composed of a central column that widens into a circular foot. Both the column and the foot are extensively adorned with intricate, openwork filigree or reticulated patterns, possibly depicting floral or scroll motifs. The craftsmanship on the metalwork appears detailed, suggesting a decorative artistic style. The overall condition of the table shows a visible patina on the metal base, which is expected with age and adds to its character. No overt signs of damage like chips, cracks (on the marble), or significant dents (on the metal) are immediately apparent from the image, but a closer inspection would be necessary to confirm. The style suggests it could be from the early to mid-20th century, possibly reflecting Art Nouveau or Art Deco influences, or a revivalist period. The piece combines natural elegance with decorative metalwork, indicating a piece designed for aesthetic appeal and functional use as an accent or display table.
