    Elegant design and top quality carved multi purpose antique table. The top of this beautifully designed and very well executed table is inlaid with a diamond in the center which grows into a larger, but more organic diamond as it moves outward.

Apart from some minor dents and scratches and some fading of the gilding this table is in excellent condition and it is structurally as sound as can be. It even comes with the Original, antique coasters...
