Top: Stunning marble slab with warm amber, rust, and cream tones — likely Breche d'Alep or Giallo Siena marble, both prized for their dramatic veining.
Base: Cast brass or gilt bronze (ormolu-style), featuring:
Scrolled acanthus leaf apron/frieze along the top rail
Figural supports — likely sphinx or lion-head figures at the column bases, very typical of Empire style
Paw feet (a hallmark of Regency/Empire furniture)
Reeded column legs connected by a stretcher
Period/Origin: Likely a 20th century reproduction of a 19th-century Empire or Regency design, probably French or Italian in manufacture. Pieces like this were popular from the 1950s–1980s.
Value: Tables of this quality and style typically sell for £800–£2,500+ depending on condition, provenance, and marble quality. Original 19th-century examples would command significantly more.
