    Hello, I am wondering if anyone has seen this style of table before? I believe they are mid century modern. I love the shape and design! I do not know the maker or history of this style, any input would be appreciated, thank you.

      Hi there ~ WELCOME ~

      Retro table is a Kidney or Atomic Shape I think they were referred to as. Anything on the bottom or the bottom of the top tier. I would say 1950's/1960's era. LOVE them. CA-Ching !!

      Here are some others from that era:

      I grew up with this kind of furniture This is known as a kidney table. Can't give you a maker without a furniture label.

      You can also go to Google Images and type in '1950s Formica mosaic kidney table' and many different styles will come up.

      I don't remember seeing any tag underneath, I will check under the top tier when I get home.

      OK - possibly something hiding there.

      most furniture companies, unfortunately, left no info about their company and very few tags on them to identify.

      Well, four years later, I've answered the call. We have a few of these now - same tile but wood top instead of laminate. Dying to find out more. I've be scouring the internet and found a few similar items. If you comment here, I suppose I'll receive a notification.

      A year ago I posted MCM turquoise mosaic tile end tables ... yours have similar characteristics ... mine have the original labels INTERSTATE MOSAIC TILE COMPANY - MIAMI. Wish we could find company catalogs if there were any.

      CORRECTION (sorry) its INTERSTATE MARBLE & TILE CO Miami.
