Maitland-Smith Neoclassical Style Bronze and Marble Top Center Table

This is a high-quality center table attributed to Maitland-Smith, featuring a circular inset marble top with a fossilized or highly variegated pattern in shades of black, cream, and ochre. The table's apron is finished in a warm walnut or mahogany wood veneer, adorned with classical bronze or brass swag and rosette appliques. Supporting the top is a complex, architectural cast-metal base with a dark verdigris or bronze patina. The base incorporates scrolled acanthus leaves, C-scroll elements, and a central baluster, all resting upon a four-legged wooden plinth with carved lion's paw feet or ornate scroll castors. The craftsmanship is indicative of late 20th-century luxury furniture design, blending Empire and Neoclassical revival elements. The condition appears excellent with no visible cracks in the marble or significant structural wear, though minor surface scuffs on the wood base and age-appropriate oxidation on the metalwork are typical for pieces of this vintage. The combination of heavy wrought metal and natural stone provides a substantial and regal aesthetic typical of Maitland-Smith's high-end production.
