The auction will start in __ days and __ hours

Start price: £5

Buyer's Premium:

An oval marble-topped bistro table in the French garden style, likely dating from the late 19th or early 20th century. This lot consists of the table only. The item features a thick oval white marble top with characteristic grey veining. It is supported by a cast and wrought iron base with decorative scrolled legs terminating in bulbous feet, all secured by a central cross-stretcher. The metalwork shows traces of a green-painted finish.


Condition report:

The table is in heavily weathered condition consistent with age and prolonged outdoor use. There is a prominent crack running through the width of the marble top. The marble surface displays significant rust-coloured staining and accumulated grime. The iron base shows extensive loss of paint, along with widespread surface corrosion and pitting throughout. The piece would benefit from professional restoration.
