These sturdy tables are beautifully hand painted with floral designs. There are metal insets and additional images on all sides. Lower shelf also has flower motifs. Tables are 27 inches high, each shelf is 17.5 inches square. I cannot find any manufacturer marks. My thinking is that the pieces are around 100 years old. Honestly, they could be considerably older. Both tables are solid, no lose parts or wobble. Some damage to painted flowers.
