Console Louis XV style; Spain or France, second half of the nineteenth century.
Carved and gilded wood. Marble top.
Presents faults.
Measurements: 83 x 110 x 70 cm.
The four legs of the console table have a light cabriole shape, a front carved with scrolls and vegetal elements. The waist of the table has two curved areas towards the ends, and an openwork front with the same type of decoration inspired by Antiquity as the legs: stems, garlands, vegetal crowns associated with the emperors, bows... The upper table top follows the lines of the furniture with a lobed profile.
It is clearly inspired by decorative elements taken either from the Renaissance or from classical antiquity (more Imperial Rome than Greece), as is usual in Neoclassical works. However, the movement of the upper panel, the openwork decoration on the front, the light cabriole legs and the abundance of decoration and gilding on this piece of furniture are also related to a continuation of the forms of another 18th century style: Rococo.
