Jellybean demonstrates the motion detection capabilities of the Interactive LED Coffee table. She's annoyed at having too much attention (trying to get her off the table so we can take photos....) so the tail is going. This seems to be common, in fact.

Marble-topped tables were always status symbols in upper class colonial homes. This was because the tops were imported, usually from China. The diameter of the top, the molding around the edge, the number of grooves around the rim and the elaborate carving on the base added to the status of the owner. The bigger and more elaborate, the higher the status.
This particular piece with a solid marble top has channels carved around the rim is even rarer. Since the top was heavy, the table needed a sturdy base like the thick narra baluster leg of this table. Its shaft is carved with an unopened bunch of acanthus leaves tied at the neck with a pair of slim moldings. A ring below it is carved to resemble a bracelet with a series of oval beads nestled on concave ovals that are joined together by a wide, half-round molding.
The four legs of the table are in the form of an S-shaped foliate scroll from with a lion’s leg emerging from the bottom to end in paw feet grasping a flattened ball. They are attached to the cylindrical base of the pedestal which is appliqued with three parallel vertical reeds between each foot. -Martin I. Tinio, Jr
