Antique Eastlake Marble-Top Bistro Table – Parlor, Dining, or Game Table (Circa 1880s)
This handmade Eastlake bistro table, dating to the 1880s, measures 33 inches wide, 23 inches deep, and 30 inches tall. It features intricate incised carvings, burl wood accents, and a bold cross motif at its center. The base is supported by original brass casters for easy mobility. The tabletop is finished with a newer Italian white marble slab with soft gray veining, adding a fresh yet classic touch.
Eastlake furniture, named after British architect and designer Charles Eastlake, was crafted to bring beauty and simplicity into homes during the late Victorian era, favoring geometric designs and quality materials over the ornate, mass-produced furniture of the time. Parlor tables like this were originally used to display fine vases, lamps, and collectibles in formal entertaining spaces.
This table has remained in the same family for generations, passed down as a cherished heirloom. Its versatile size makes it perfect as an accent table in a parlor, a charming bistro or dining table for a small eat-in kitchen, or a stylish game table for apartments or historic homes where space is limited.
