Antique Bleached French Walnut Wood Console Table, Late 1800s

About the Item

At over six feet wide and three feet tall, this walnut console table has a commanding presence. Hand-carved in France during the late 1800s, the wood has been bleached more recently, resulting in a very pleasing beige color that accentuates the mastery-level carvings. The top has quarter-round molding adorned with niches filled with demi-lune floral paterae. Beneath is a rounded frieze thickly carved with a horizontal fruit margent, bundled by crinkled ribbon, that leaves no space bare. Hidden within the apron are three drawers, activated by pulling from the lower molding. The center drawer, which is more compact than the two flanking it, also plunges downwards, allowing the margent to continue its unbroken path. Supported by four baluster form legs embellished with leaf cups, fluting, and thick gadrooning with recessed lobes, the console is quite statuesque. The slender legs are further strengthened by four bun feet with recessed lobes and a unique H-stretcher. Several layers of molding give the high-arching stretcher a more angular feel, as the modeling is stepped. At the base of each arch is a rosette nodule encircled by a curled leaf. Our bleached walnut console would be a focal point of any hallway, landing, or living room.

  • Antique French Wrought Iron Railing Console with Shellstone Top
    Located in Dallas, TX
    Originally a balcony railing, this salvaged antique iron has been repurposed into a magnificent console table with a shellstone top. The railing was salvaged from a French building that was constructed in the late 1800’s. A two-inch-thick cream stone with white inclusions surmounts the painted green ironwork. The stone, which features a stunning display of shell and coral trace fossils, has been carved with a thin beveled edge. Directly beneath the stone is a row of repeating geometric shapes joined by pierced circles. The pattern is a larger open circle followed by a horizontally aligned open rectangle. Small roundels join the rectangles to the horizontal bars above and below. On the other side of the lower bar is a second row of repeating shapes, this time vertical rectangles followed by larger rectangles with incised corners and an inset elongated oval. Once again, the open ironwork is joined by pierced circles and roundels. On each end is a scrolled section that blends subtly into another geometric motif. This recently converted wrought iron railing...
