Pair of Louis XIV Style Gilded Console Tables.

About the Item

These magnificent, ornate, intricately decorated, gilded Svenska Blue console tables, carrying faux marble tops are an example of the fine craftsmanship and style that once adorned Palaces and Stately homes of the most wealthy in society. These console tables are in exceptional condition and as a matching pair are widely sought after by architects and interior designers alike. Gilding furniture is a very old practice, but the period which saw the greatest use was the Baroque period. In France, gilded furniture was popular during the reign of Louis XIV. In Italy, furniture was adorned with gilded figures or ornate carvings to show the wealth of a family, thus, tables, chests and cupboards were covered in gold, which enhanced the embellishments and reflected the prestige of the owners. In ancient times gold was beaten into very thin sheets by a specialised craftsman for use in the gilding process. This pair of Louis XIV style console tables are a testament to the centuries of work and traditions handed down over time.
