The surface`s finish is smooth and polished to high gloss. It has a curved edge. A quality spindled gallery in solid brass unifies the design, complementing the the metal golden tones of the base. The gallery is also very practical stopping items placed on the table to slide off the sides.
The underneath of the round top is also in resin with a satin enamel finish in cream colour. The top is removable. It easily screws tight to the top flat round portion of the metal frame by 3 screws.
The table top is supported by an elegant baluster turned column. The column is in gilt metal & brass, and rises from a cast tripod base in gilt bronze with cabriole legs of simple design & pad feet. Three new felt pads under the feet protect the floor underneath. The quality metal base is heavy making the table very stable.

FRENCH BISTRO TABLES HISTORY
The first French bistros appeared in Paris around the 1600`s. The Cafe Procope was one of them. They sit somewhere between a café and a restaurant. They differed from the traditional taverns or drink houses because they used small tables with marble tops and often folding chairs, so business owners could stack them, avoiding paying the rent for an outdoor space. The Industrial Revolution brought decorative iron & cast metal bases to these tables. In the 20th Century the materials have sometimes slightly changed, but always keeping within the original style & proportions. Today they work well and are very fashionable in interiors as side tables placed next to a sofa or armchair.
