    So I just helped the driver unload this table onto my driveway. The ceramic tiles are stamped Brevettato Made in Italy Modena Ceramica Ducale. These are thick tiles and the grout has worn off as has the mortar. I am thinking the table is from the 70's as well as the tile. Does the table look more Spanish/Moroccan then Italian? Thoughts?

    Approx. height 16.5", width 75.5", depth 39".

    No. You're not going to find a Spanish or Moroccan table with Italian tiles IMHO. Both countries have their own, very healthy tile industry.

    Ceramica Ducale of Modena, Italy was established in 1958 but doesn't appear to be still in business. According to the internet, it was active until the late 1970s. I'd think your coffee table dates to the 1970s too. (And bet it cleans up good.)

    That shouts 70s to me. I had tiled tables: still have one small one, loved them. Cleverest thing was a friend's dinner table, which had a row of tiles inset to take hot pots.

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    Pretty! Long and fairly wide. Where will you put it?
