Faux ivory is heavier than regular ivory and it consists partly of composite poly resin and white stone powder. Everything is molded, carved and polished in relief and it has an almost occult ritualistic appearance to it. Some believe these kind of tables are antique but our research shows that they were brought home via the trading routes via the 1950s and 60s. The table features its original glass table top. The table has markings/signature to the rim that support the table top. This table will ship disassembled. less
