My favorite thing about this style of table is that it's perfect for small spaces because the visual is one of continuity. A late mother-in-law was an interior designer, and she used to mix Art Deco with Victorian, which works very well when done right since the periods are right next door to each other in time. She had a larger version in her living room, with little plants and antique toys (father-in-law's passion) displayed. My table is sitting over a vintage style oriental rug and the contrast between old and new is perfection. So if you're sitting on the fence about buying this table, it probably won't go very well with "Early American" LOL. But if you have a hodge-podge-bohemian-meets-contemporary vibe going on like I do, this table will give your room a facelift!
