Pet peeve & cool tables

If you follow the link you will see that they have listed this as "50's Deco End Tables," Now here's my beef, Art Deco lasted from the 20's and waned in the early 40's.  Some might say it ended before that to be replaced with "Futurism" and what is now referred to as Mid-Century Modern.  It sticks in my craw when in the age of the internet, where research materials are readily available 24/7, that people constantly mislabel their items for sale.  This is NOT Art Deco, those Gothic Revival pendant lights are NOT Art Deco, that Nagel print from the 80's is NOT Art Deco!  Do a little legwork people!  Don't get me started on people calling all vintage plastic, "Bakelite."
