Description from the seller
Brass-colored varnished wood console with a white marble top, Louis XV style.
This console represents a refined example of mid-20th-century Italian design, reinterpreting the French Rococo style of Louis XV. Made in the 1950s, it combines the elegance of curved shapes and floral ornaments typical of the eighteenth century with modern manufacturing techniques. The white marble top and the painted wood frame with a brass finish reflect Italian craftsmanship in creating luxury indoor furniture for sophisticated residential interiors. These consoles were often commissioned for grand entrances, lounges, or galleries, where they served both functional and decorative purposes.
This type of furniture is highly sought after by collectors of Italian mid-century furniture, interior designers, and enthusiasts of Rococo revival style. The charm lies in the combination of precious materials, the craftsmanship, and the decorative versatility that adapts to both classic and eclectic environments. The postwar Italian design enthusiasts particularly appreciate these pieces for their ability to merge tradition and modernity, representing a golden era of Italian artisanal production. The value is further enhanced by the quality of the materials, the structural integrity, and the presence of the original marble.
