Demilune Tables

While looking for a demilune table I realized there was not much available if one wants to buy a new one. Through Istdibs, I discovered that in case of antique and vintage pieces it is the opposite. May be demilune tables have gone out of fashion therefore furniture companies are not making that many? Since I have not posted anything for more than a week, I will do this post on demilune tables and share some interesting specimens with my blog friends.
