French Vintage Fossil Marble Dining-Center Table

Dimensions: 30 ⅛” H x 50 ⅛” W x 50 ⅛” D

A fabulous vintage French dining table of circa 1970, carved from a unique block of Moroccan marble populated by the fossilized remains of a variety of marine life. Dagger-shaped belemnite fossils are scattered in random arrangement across the disc of stone that forms the table top, mixing with the traces of nautilus spirals and patchy tan veins in the otherwise dark gray marble that has been polished to reveal all of the nuanced character. Balancing the top is a sculptural cross-base pedestal in an hourglass silhouette. The excitement of the fossilized inclusions makes this table a unique conversation piece for guests to admire while dining, that may also ground the room when used as a center table. One of the panels in the base has a flake missing which is cosmetic and does not affect the structural integrity(see photos). We believe this to be in good antique condition considering the age, and any visible signs of wear are captured in the photos.
