              <text>Anne Seddon Kinsolving Brown bought these scagliola side tables as a defining feature of the music room. The tables were versatile, and could hold guests’ drinks, lamps, or other decorations.&#13;
 &#13;
An Italian architectural technique popularized by the Medici family, Scagliola substituted  cheaper material for expensive marble inlays. As this practice became more widespread and popular, scagliola furniture and art became more refined and valued at higher prices. The Browns bought this furniture at the height of its popularity and may well have paid as much for it as for real marble.  Conservators repaired the inlay on these original tables during the reconstruction of the house.</text>
