Description from the seller
Wall console with an onyx top – in baroque/rococo style – mid-20th century
Elegant wall console in carved and painted wood, with a top in natural onyx featuring typical veining in light green and brown tones. The structure showcases rich decoration with scrolls and foliate motifs in baroque/rococo style, with a double sinuous leg joined at the bottom. The ivory-toned lacquer finish is enhanced with gilding on the raised parts.
The onyx top is shaped and polished, with prominent veins and a wavy edge. The carved wooden structure is of artisanal craftsmanship, typical of Italian decorative production of the mid-twentieth century.
Estimated period: 1950s to 1960s.
Materials: carved and painted wood, natural onyx.
Adapted as a decorative element for entrance halls, living rooms, corridors, or bedrooms, ideal for displaying small objects, vases, or ornaments. I have a pair of matching shelves available. If interested, you can find them by following my other active auctions.
Dimensions (approximate)
Height: 65 cm
Length: 60 cm

Conditions
Overall good condition with normal signs of wear due to age. Small chips and color fading on the lacquer and slight wear on the gilding. The onyx top features natural veins and minor microfissures consistent with the material and age. The photographs are an integral part of the description.
