I inherited this Imperial marble coffee table. I believe it may be from the 50's judging by the logo, but not entirely sure. I was wondering what it might be worth and if there was a particular name for this line. I've seen a few Imperial coffee tables, but none that were marble. I also haven't seen any with this style of supports/legs. Value and Line of Imperial Table?

 

The 'Imperial' logo is located on the underside of the table top. The marble section has a wooden frame under it and that just sits on the legs. There is no sign of any missing screws or bolts, but appears to just rest on the legs. Possibly, due to the weight of the marble, they didn't feel the need to bolt it together. (This is just speculation, but wanted to be as detailed as possible.) Any information would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

I found this at a garage sale and paid $25. I have looked online and I can't find anything like this. All I've been able to find are the round tables and this table is oval shaped.A two tier wooden table.

 

It is marked with a Imperial sticker and number on the underneath. It is in beautiful condition with no scratches. Can you tell me what style and how much the table is worth?

A two tier wooden table.
 
The clawfoot on the wooden table.
 
The manufacturer's information on the underside of a table.

This style table was generally called a 'dumbwaiter' but you will see it described as:
dumbwaiter
2 tier w/claw feet
side table, etc

The value will generally depend on where you are located as well as the condition.

When you paid $25 for the table you (more or less) set the value at $25. You did get a good deal but, still, the table sold for $25.

I have not seen an oval table like this but I cannot see that style would be any more valuable than a round 2 or 3 tier table.
You will always see similar tables listed for low and high prices but only a 'sold' item represents value as that shows what someone was willing to pay.
I did not find any similar tables on eBay's sold site so that means they are not selling very often (for any amount of money).

This style was popular in the 50s and the number and marking is for the 50s or generally called 'mid-century'.

Does anyone know anything about this table? It has wheels, but no handle to push it, so I don't think it is a tea trolley. I bought an Imperial gate leg table and find lots of info on it, but nothing about this table.

I need help.

Imperial did make tea tables and tea carts.
Your logo appears to be the one used after 1939 and maybe into the 50s.
I could not find a table like yours or even a similar one but your pictures are not good enough to post on other sites to ask for information.

You need to take some pictures without clutter in the background and also without lighting flowing across the table.
Perhaps pictures similar to what you have but in another area.
It also is not clear how the table opens so a picture of that would be helpful.
You show the markings but most Imperial furniture also has numbers so if there are numbers, you need a picture of those.
You may have to look at a lot of magazine ads to find your table or something similar.

You can ask your question on this site, but it may take several days for an answer.
