Where should a round marble foyer table go?

These pieces suit entrance halls and large landings where their circular footprint allows movement around all sides. They function well beneath central chandeliers, providing an immediate focal point upon entering a home.

How do I clean the marble top?

Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap and dry immediately to protect the polished stone surface from staining. Avoid acidic cleaning products that can etch or dull the marble finish over time.

Are these tables heavy?

The combination of solid timber frames and thick marble slabs makes these pieces substantial and weighty to move. Most rely on their own mass to remain stable as freestanding centre tables without needing floor fixings.

What is the difference between an Empire and a Regency table?

Empire pieces originate from French workshops, frequently incorporating heavy mahogany, gilt brass mounts, and classical motifs like swans and rams' heads. Regency examples belong to the British period running concurrently, often showing distinct regional cabinetmaking techniques and local timber choices.
