19th Century Italian Walnut Console/Side Table
19th Century Italian Walnut Console or Side Table.
This lovely table combines serpentine curves with fine veneers and inlay. The table frame is serpentine on every side except its back. The top and apron are veneered in dark patinated walnut. On the top the walnut veneers have been laid at an angle to create a parquetry effect. In the centre of the top and the frieze are inlaid cartouche motifs in contrasting lighter timber. The frieze and top are also widely crossbanded to create a further contrast between light and dark woods. The table stands on four cabriole legs with incurved feet.
This table is a fine piece of design and would have been extremely difficult to make due to all of the curved surfaces. A very attractive and useful table.
