ID Antique Carved Pool Table with Cast Iron Legs

I am looking for any assistance in identifying an old antique pool table with cast iron legs that I have owned for about 10+ years. I have not been able to find anything quite like it so I don't know its actual origin or age.

It has no identification markers but I suspect that it is a Brunswick pool table. It's key identifying feature is its cast iron legs, but it is not very fancy compared to others I seen online.

It also has a bit of an interesting history, as it was formerly owned by the actress Lindsay Wagner when she lived in Montana. She included it as part of her house sale. I ended up buying it from the person who bought her house after he later relocated and brought the table with him.

I would appreciate any help or insights in identifying the table.

Thank you.

I don't know of any standard Brunswick pool table models that came with cast iron legs. I guess it's possible that they aren't the original legs.

Brunswick Balke-Collender (and later, Brunswick Billiards) made lots of custom pool tables for celebrities, many (most) of which were never cataloged. They did do a catalog of custom pool tables made for wealthy business people or celebrities back in 1926, to help drive their custom pool table business, but yours isn't in there. I suspect that your pool table was made quite a bit later than that.

Here's the cover:

What is making you think it's a Brunswick pool table?

Can you share clear photos of any other identifying name plates, logos, markings, etc.?
