Antique French Louis XIV Style Console in Blonde Walnut and Marble, Circa 1880

About the Item

A fantastic table from France, circa 1880, this console has been hand-carved with motifs in the style of Louis XIV. The beautiful blonde walnut wood was carved by a master-level ebeniste, as noted by the delicate foliate latticework surmounted by a large mascaron inset within a leafed console. Two floral rinceaux emanate from beneath the smirking face, adding contour to the bottom of the apron. Beneath the table is a sinuous X-stretcher featuring a scalloped shell noix. This undulating support is also adorned with fluting, curled leaves, scrolls, volutes, and barbed counter curves. The stretcher connects to each of the thickly carved legs by rosette joineries above leaf cup feet. Small foliate margents adorn the legs on all sides, beneath large volute leaves that envelop a small, scalloped shell. The wood has a lovely light brown and tan hue, which is accentuated by the 1 ½ inch thick green marble top with white veining and gray inclusions. Our Louis XIV-style console would make a fabulous addition to a library, hallway, or living room.

  • Antique Carved Oak and Bluestone Regence Style Console from Flanders, Circa 1850
    Located in Dallas, TX
    Hand-carved circa 1850 in the northern reaches of France, known as French Flanders, this oak console or “table a Gibier” has a lovely black bluestone top with white and gray veining. The 1 ½ inch thick top, which has an inverted quarter-round molding, is supported by four long, cabriole legs adorned with elements inspired by nature, such as roquillards, rosettes, floral and foliate margents, and hoof feet. Horizontal margents on the front belt are overshadowed by the elaborate embellishments below. A central carving depicts an Apolline mascaron set within an attenuated leaf wreath, evoking a sense of classical elegance. Below the medallion is a sprawling pierced foliate apron, which is also seen on the sides, but less grand in scale. The stretcher, as is customary with Regence-style furniture, has a modified, serpentine X-stretcher with a center rosette. Given the transitional nature of the Regence period in French history, our bluestone top console...
