English Regency William IV Teal Painted Marble Top Low Coffee Table ca. 1840

About the Item

WILLIAM IV TEAL PAINTED MARBLE TOP LOW COFFEE TABLE Probably Anglo-Indian, circa 1840 with a modern green marble inset top 17 1/4" H x 24 1/2" D x 45 3/4" W There is a quiet strength to this 19th-century William IV period low table: its worn, teal-and-olive green paint softened by time, the legs turned with an almost architectural rhythm, the robust iron strapping in the corners. The fluting is bold and deliberate, not fussy; the table’s proportions are low and grounded, evoking the practical, adaptable designs that emerged from British colonial life in India. The verde marble top with its dark chevron pattern is a modern replacement and plays harmoniously with the hue of the table, an overall utilitarian form that today serves perfectly as a storied coffee table with a rich surface history. It likely began life as a charpoy base, a merchant’s platform, or something similarly useful before being repurposed into a fabulous coffee table: the center of family life. Note the powerful iron straps that lock each of the four legs together over the complex turned and tapered legs with bulbous swollen reeding over and above ring-turnings. A fabulous statement piece. Condition: Modern green marble top with minor wear and scuffing. Edge wear around rim. Wear to painted surface throughout, beautifully patinated. Paint layer is old, originality unknown. Reinforcement to the interior with an added fore-aft bar across the middle, shimming of edges to level the frame. Sturdy and strong.

French Modernist Gilded Wrought-Iron & Glass Coffee Accent Table ca. 1950s
Located in Shippensburg, PA
MODERNIST GILDED WROUGHT-IRON AND GLASS COFFEE TABLE French, circa 1950s unmarked Item # 401RGG02P-1 An endlessly interesting modernist accent table from the 1950s, it works perfectly both as a side table beside a low sofa or chair or as a coffee or cocktail table. The diminutive stature of the table allows it to be a part of the room without dominating at all, adding texture and visual interest with the brilliantly textured gilt patina while having a great deal of negative space that makes the table feel light, airy and relaxed. The 3/8" thick (and brand new) glass top is set into tiny grooves in the legs, each with a single twisted iron ring hanging from the top with a gentle curved profile that terminates in a stubbed sabot. Ready to place. We acquired this together with a matched pair to this that is almost identical in size but is a simple black patination instead of having the gilt surface on the wrought iron; contact us if you would like to know about the other table. Measurements: 19 1/8" H x 29 5/8" diameter Condition Report: Glass is brand new 3/8" thick tempered clear glass; table in very good condition, light wear to gilding and overall patina in a few spots, incredibly sturdy and solid. A fine ready-to-place presentation. About silla antiques...
