19th Century
Height 34 x width 49 1/2 x depth 16 1/2 inches.

In sturdy, attractive condition. The cream paint may be original but has been embellished more recently with gilding. The caryatids, which are carved wood that has been painted to simulate bronze, may also have been touched up more recently. Even craquelure and soiling to the paint throughout, consistent with age. Structurally sound but with one horizontal age split to the proper left side. The marble top with some minor surface scratches but no cracks or repairs noted.
