Condition

Very good condition overall. Both tables present with minor signs of oxidation on the upper corners of the iron frame. The glazed surface displays minor scuffing in addition to superficial abrasions consistent with age and use. Small pinholes and crazing on the ceramic tiles throughout and these are typical of the material and inherent to production. The iron feet are stable with light scuffing consistent with age and use. A pair of complementary and unique tables that present well overall.
