18th Century Italian Gilt and Painted Console Table with Marble Top
SOLD
A Fine 18th Century Italian Silver Gilt and Painted Console/Side Table with Original Marble Top.
This lovely table features a combination of original silvered and gilded highlights against a white painted matte background. The piece also features its stunning original marble top, featuring very pronounced veins of red, orange, pink and brown.
The table is of rectangular form with ribbon banner-type moulding to the centre of the frieze and paterae set in rectangular mouldings to the blocks on each leg. There is an oval paterae to the centre of the frieze on the front and two sides. The legs are panelled and square in section, tapering beautifully until they reach their toupie feet.
The use of silvering and gilding in combination to create a 'silver gilt' finish seems to have been a particular speciality of Italian makers and this is a particularly fine example.
A very attractive table with character.
