18th Century French Louis XVI Console Table
SOLD
A Fine French Louis XVI Painted Console Table With Finely Figured Marble Top.
This Lovely table stands beautifully and is very finely proportioned. The frieze features a large-scale guilloche or intertwined circular pattern which is now backed with glass. Although not original, the glass has aged beautifully and gives this piece a very interesting contemporary feel. The combination of the shades of black and grey in the marble and the aging glass frieze is a very effective one. The frieze terminates in very finely carved paterae and the legs feature graceful fluting and leaf carving, terminating in short toupie feet.
The table retains much of its original painted surface which has worn in places giving the piece a very characterful appearance.
