EMPIRE MAHOGANY PIER TABLE WITH MARBLE COLUMNS. Continental, circa mid-19th century Item # 109OYP14M. A good 19th century pier table with a gray marble top situated over a squared apron with flamed mahogany veneers raised over sienna marble columns capped with exquisitely chiseled ormolu mounts and stretched with a broad lower shelf over bun feet. The center features an old mirror framed by squared columns on the sides. While the gray marble top is of the period, it is probably taken from another piece of similar size, as the back corners step out and would probably have matched some kind of structure in another piece, but it is a rather nice top with a wonderful worn patina throughout.
Measurements: 38 1/4" H x 21" D x 51 W. Condition Report: Marble top from another piece of the same period (with projecting rear corners). Lower shelf with extensive cracking, some with old filling, as well as chipping and blemishes.
Surface throughout is old and quite oxidized, nearly black in some areas. Mirror is likely an early replacement with some silvering losses.
