I have a marble top table myself, so it naturally drew my attention! Mine is a taller, darker version from Germany. It's by my front door and seems to be a catch all that I'm constantly clearing!
My GF constantly says that my hording sprawl grows to cover every horizontal surface in the house. My counter to that is, “Just how many accent tables does one room really need?” That of course as well as the rhetorical question, “What purpose do accent tables serve but to be ‘accented’ by my stuff?”
