Featured Wrought iron(?) or Wire(?) French Style Table/Stand with Serving Tray + Deco Chrome Standing Ashtray

Hi all
I found these yesterday at a local thrift store; the table/stand has a serving tray that rests upside down making a top for the table & when you flip it over it has handles so you can serve your guests.

Is this wrought iron - I think I've heard of 'twisted wire'? - is it that?
How old is it?
Can I call it a French table/stand with serving tray?

The standing floor ashtray is by Metalcraft - is that alabaster stone at the bottom?
Can I call it mid century? Art Deco Ashtray?

Thank you in advance for any information!

 

The ashtray looks like slag glass, not alabaster.

 

Not wrought iron by a long stretch. Don't know the proper term, but twisted wire may be as close as you'll come.

 

here's a smoke stand with slightly different handle for comparison

basket/server sometimes called twisted wire

 

Yeah, I think it's called "metal mesh", sounds a bit better than wire.

 

Some call it 'fancy wire' or 'twisted wire'. I happen to like it! https://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/64116180_pair-of-twisted-wire-conservatory-plant-stands

 

That's it! What do I call it - twisted wire table with serving tray?

 

with removable handled serving tray

 

Think your wire stand is a modern import. There were similar wirework tables from the Victorian era. Your deco-era ashtray stand is indeed slag glass. Many of these incorporate lighting with the glass.

 

What does one do these days with a smoking stand? I found a broken one once and made a table out of it - pitched the ashtray top.

 

Plant stand?

 

Have you found another one? I searched using twisted wire & metal mesh stand table with serving tray top but I can't seem to find another one?

 

No, but the use of spot welds tells me it is newer. Here is what an antique wirework table should look like.
