The tables feature circular malachite tops which are encircled by gilt bronze (ormolu) bands. Each table top is placed on three gilt bronze stylised cabriole legs with scrolled tops. The legs support a small shelf about half way down, which is crafted from malachite and edged with gilt bronze. The tables’ legs terminate in paw feet which are linked to one another by openwork triangular stretchers.
