Full Description
This striking pair of antique cast iron tripod tables dates to the late 19th century to early 1900s and showcases the enduring appeal of traditional decorative ironwork. Each table is richly ornamented with cascading foliate detail, a pierced circular top, and four fleur-de-lys-framed sections, all surrounded by a solid rim that adds both structure and refinement.
The elegant tripod bases are united by a central column, giving the tables excellent balance while enhancing their sculptural quality. Traces of the original black finish remain, complemented by areas of natural surface rust and wear that have developed gently over time. This aged patina lends warmth and authenticity, ensuring no two surfaces are exactly alike.
Exceptionally versatile, these tables work just as beautifully indoors as they do outside. Use them as wine tables beside a fireside chair, plant stands in a conservatory or orangery, or decorative accent tables in a hallway, living room, or garden setting. Displayed together or styled separately, they offer timeless character and a tangible sense of history.
Sold as a genuine matching pair, these are pieces of early 20th-century craftsmanship that are increasingly difficult to find — functional antiques that elevate any space with ease and elegance.
