CONDITION:
Very good vintage condition with light patina. Smoked glass top is new. It was made to inset into the glass and .5" thick. In hindsight, I think a thicker glass top, either .75" or 1" thick with a beveled edge would be better. We are happy to provide a new custom glass top based on your preference of tint, edge profile (bevel) and thickness. Table is beautiful and ready for immediate use.
