18th Century Poudreuse Writing Desk, Console Table Painted Piemont Italien

About the Item

18th Century Poudreuse Writing Desk, Console Table Painted Piemont Italien Small, Rare Poudreuse or Console Table – Italy, Piedmont c. 1760/70 This elegant and finely crafted piece of 18th-century furniture hails from Piedmont, Italy, circa 1760/70. Versatile in use, it functions as a poudreuse, a small desk, or a decorative console table. The table’s most striking feature is its original hand-painted decoration, which remains remarkably intact and well-preserved. Adorned with charming landscapes and delicate staffage scenes, the artwork is executed in soft shades of green and blue, lending the piece a unique and sophisticated appearance. The careful brushwork and attention to detail reflect the artistic tradition of Northern Italy during the mid-18th century. Finely painted on all sides, this table is not only practical but also a beautiful decorative object that can stand freely in a room. Its slender, curved legs and subtle rococo influence further emphasize its light, graceful aesthetic. This exceptional piece would add a refined historical touch to any interior, serving as a true testament to Italian craftsmanship and design from the 18th century.
