18th Century, Italian Neoclassical Carved Giltwood Demi-lune Console

About the Item

18th Century, Italian Neoclassical Carved Giltwood Half-moon Console This elegant console was built in Rome, in Italy, in the neoclassical era at the end of the eighteenth century. Demi-lune shaped, it has a top composed of a slab in Sicilian jasper marble on a white marble base that in its height is covered with gold leaf. The wooden structure has a gilding leaf that to create movement and shine has the details in relief polished with agate stone, while the backgrounds are cushioned with a burin treatment. The wood is finely carved with motifs characteristic of neoclassicism. The band below the floor has an egg frame at the top, a band decorated with phytomorphic motifs with turns and leaves and a frame with a small dot at the bottom. In correspondence of the four legs are carved some elements in the shape of a mask. The truncated legs of inverted cone, grooved and carved with flowers and leaves, originate with an important circular capital decorated with acanthus leaves, palmette motifs and convex grooves. Even the tips with which the legs end have very refined and complex sculptures with geometric and floral elements and acanthus leaves. In the important Italian palaces between the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries the consoles were among the most sought-after furnishings, emblem of the wealth of the client, to show off in the large halls of representation. This type of highly decorative furniture is still today of great scenic effect and contributes to the majesty of every room that hosts it. The warm color given by the gilding and the top in jasper, and the sophistication of the carvings makes this furniture bright, graceful and very decorative, easy to fit into contexts of antique furniture but also modern. There are some fractures in the jasper paving at the back. The photographs were taken before the conservative restoration of the golden wooden part.

18th Century, Pair of Italian Neoclassical Lacquered and Giltwood Consoles

Located in IT

18th century, pair of Italian neoclassical lacquered and giltwood consoles This pair of consoles was made in the second half of the 18th century in the neoclassical era, in Naples (Italy) The carved and lacquered wooden consoles are composed of two half-moon tops lacquered with fake jasper. The band below the floor is sculpted in the ways of Classic grooved friezes, lacquered with light color and gold. The four legs are also grooved lacquered and golden and end in quadrangular feet. These consoles are very elegant and refined for the simplicity of their line and color. Consoles with two shelves are also quite rare. These allow greater flexibility in their use: in fact, in the lower shelf it is possible to expose, for example, vases with flowers, porcelain, books or other decorative objects in addition to what is placed above or offend the ability to lighten the top floor from too many objects. For their small size and especially for the particular depth of the floors, very narrow, and for the distinctly decorative character, these consoles are easily inserted in any environment. They are in fact perfect in the entrances or in the corridors, in a living room or a study, exposed in pairs or individually. The light color also makes them pleasant next to antique and modern furniture.
