Details
An exquisite late 19th century Italian hand-carved giltwood and painted console table in the Rococo Revival style, richly detailed with scrolling acanthus leaves, shell motifs, and cabriole legs. The frame features layers of hand-applied gesso, original gilt highlights, and a parchment-toned painted finish that has gracefully aged over time to reveal its old-world charm.
The top retains a textured faux bois pattern, lending depth and authenticity to the piece. The carving quality and proportions speak to the skilled craftsmanship of the Italian ateliers of the period—ornate yet balanced, refined yet inviting.
This console would make a striking statement in an entryway, dining room, or salon, equally at home in a coastal villa or Old World-inspired interior.
