French 19th Century Empire Table, Walnut with Marble Top and Bronze Details
Item Number: 1473
This small Empire table is made of walnut and features a dark grey marble top with contrasting white highlights. The French antique piece dates back to the 19th century and sports cylindrical column legs. The legs feature bronze feet at bottom and bronze capitals at top, meeting the two drawers below the marble. Two square legs stand at back, resting on the bottom shelf. The column design is classic to the Empire style, as are the bronze features. Two elements which combine to create an unpretentiously beautiful table.
