If you think the Chinese vase at the base of the table may be valuable, you should take it (or the photos of it) to a reliable art and antiques appraiser in your area. You aren't likely to get a reliable appraisal on line.

If I am having trouble finding a rectangle glass top table I usually order the glass from a local (to the location of my Client) glass shop and then the base from one of my furniture vendors. a dark table with your light chairs should not feel dark given that it is in a room with what looks to be lots of light with the large glass door and side window. I do think the glass would be perfect for the area. What size table are you thinking will fit the best in the space and for your needs?

Hi. I don't think either are trending. I believe it's more a matter of taste and lifestyle. Glass tops are a bit more high maintenance as you see smudges much more easily.

Pendants seem like a better geometric fit.
