Why Sellingantiques dated this piece to THE 1860s:
Oval stamp reading Dunn & Co Calcutta: colonial maker working in the mid-19th century.
Spoked octagonal framework under the top: purpose-built joinery to cradle a heavy stone slab.
Hairline shrinkage at the triform base seams: natural seasoning movement across old solid timber joints.
Bold foliate scroll carving on the feet: typical mid-Victorian sculptural style.

This is an independent date report produced by Sellingantiques using its own proprietary system. The process uses the photographs shown on this page. The system is never told the date the dealer has declared. This report shows that the two dates corroborate.

This unusual Victorian occasional table dates from 1860 in the Victorian style. The piece is constructed from rich warm brown mahogany and features a circular marble top decorated with pietra dura inlay depicting floral motifs in pink, white, green, and dark grey tones. The top rests upon a carved pedestal with a turned central column, scroll brackets, and a triform tripod base terminating in carved scroll feet. The underside bears the retailer stamp of Dunn and Co Calcutta. The table measures 81 cm high, 60 cm wide, and 60 cm deep. In a modern interior, this occasional table serves well at the end of a sofa or in a reception room for displaying small decorative items, a lamp, or drinks. Its compact circular footprint allows it to fit comfortably beside seating arrangements or within corners, bringing period character and contrasting textures of polished stone and warm timber into the living space.

Victorian occasional tables were versatile accent furniture pieces produced during the 19th century, frequently featuring decorative marble inlay tops with floral motifs set upon turned and carved timber bases.

These tables commonly pair solid or veneered mahogany and walnut bases with specimen hardstone or Pietra Dura tops crafted from natural marbles, alabasters, and mineral stones.

Authentic period examples demonstrate hand-carved architectural details on the column, historical underside construction techniques, natural oxidation to the wood, and hand-cut inlay work on the stone surface.

Position the piece adjacent to modern upholstered seating as an accent table, utilizing the geometric stone inlay to introduce texture and historical contrast into modern room layouts.

Maintain the marble top using a soft cloth with pH-neutral soap while avoiding acidic liquids, and nourish the mahogany timber base using a quality beeswax polish.
