About the Item

This breathtaking walnut console table from 18th century Italy is decorated with a technique of inlay known since the Middle Ages as “certosina” which uses delicate pieces of bone assembled into exquisite geometric patterns borrowed from the decorative arts traditions in Syria or Morocco and cultures in between. Almost every surface of the table is covered in some way with stars, diamonds, or flowers with the exception of two figural tiles in the top-center sketched with cherubs (“putti” in Italian) playing. A line of carved pendant molding drapes from the rectangular top, each little circular suspension also inlaid with a tiny mosaic star. The visual feast is carried down through the four serpentine legs to underscore the Moorish influence in their expressive Arabesque scrolls with circular medallions embedded into the grain. At the junction of the four legs rising up from the center is a turned wood finial also wrapped in a line of geometric inlay. Regarding the condition, note there are cracks and a couple pendants missing at the corners otherwise the patina would be consistent with age and use. Please view the detailed images to see more of this remarkable certosina inlay console table.
