This console table is made of gilded wood, with a straight apron. It rests on two front legs, each with a sculpted sheath depicting a woman's bust wearing a tall headdress adorned with feathers, and two rear legs that are cylindrical. The entire structure is connected by a geometric stretcher, resting on claw feet covered with a large, overhanging acanthus leaf.
It is topped with a Breccia Nuvolata marble slab from a later period. This highly decorative marble is typical of Italian marbles used from the Renaissance onward for fireplaces, columns, and furniture tops.
It is found primarily in Northern Italy, particularly around Brescia and Verona.
The gilding is superb and of high quality, with a fresh and vibrant burnishing. Italy, Florence region - First half of the 18th century. The slab is from a later period.
Our opinion: the structure with the caryatids is clearly early 18th century and almost certainly Italian, in the style of what Pierre Gole (again, French influence, even in Italy...) was doing for the bases of Louis XIV cabinets at the end of the 17th century. It's also quite possible that this base was converted into a console table. The quality of the gilding is simply exceptional. We only had to restore and clean it. A very decorative piece.
