Eastlake Style Marble Top Parlor Table
Unbranded · Furniture > Tables
Era / Decade
Late 19th Century (1880s-1890s) with 20th-century revival possibilities; the carved details and quadruple curved leg base are indicative of the Eastlake/Victorian movement.
Material
Natural pink/brown veined marble top; solid walnut or mahogany frame with carved wood details and likely dowel or mortise-and-tenon joinery.
Condition
Good. The marble appears intact without major cracks or chips, though it shows surface dulling and possible light staining. The wood base shows minor scuffs and age-appropriate wear to the finish.
Demand Level
Moderate. Antique furniture has a niche but steady market, especially for marble-top pieces which are currently trending in 'Grandmillennial' decor styles.

Selling Tips
Highlight the 'Eastlake' and 'Victorian' keywords. Photograph the table in a clean, well-lit room rather than a garage. Specifically mention if the marble is removable for easier transport. Use a stone sealer/cleaner on the marble to make the veins 'pop' before photos.
