Design Analysis
While the table might initially appear antique due to its curvy profile and classical carving, several indicators confirm it's a modern reproduction:
The label (“Made in China”) suggests mass production, commonly found in export furniture sold through retailers like Bombay Company, Rooms To Go, Costco, or TJ Maxx/HomeGoods.
The finish and joinery also reflect modern manufacturing (machine-fitted drawer, veneer wrap, and use of decorative moldings instead of true hand-carving).
The marble inset top adds both visual appeal and durability. This table draws stylistic inspiration from Louis XV and Rococo Revival furniture, especially with its bombe shape and carved scrollwork.

$250 – $400
Resale (FB Marketplace, Craigslist)
$60 – $125
Consignment / Boutique Resale
$100 – $175
Factors like the real marble top and attractive shape help it retain value even as a modern reproduction. However, resale value is limited by mass production and lack of collectible pedigree.
Recommendation
You have a lovely, well-made decorative table that adds classic charm to a room. It’s not an antique, but it’s high-quality decor furniture suitable for continued use or resale if needed.
If you'd like to keep it, consider:
Light scratch repair (e.g., with Old English scratch cover or furniture crayons)
Highlighting it under soft lighting to emphasize the marble veining and curved profile
