AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Absolutely fantastic, rare and enormous, even a very large wall console entirely made of hand-carved wood by Portuguese artisans.
From the 19th century, it has acquired over its lifetime a darker tone, but is covered with antique gold leaf, of which you can still see broad traces.
In the form of a shelf, very imposing and striking, it features as decoration three winged putti, with angel wings, among vegetal motifs.
It has a flaw on one of the sides that I tried to show in the photos; it is not something visible from the front of the piece, you mainly notice it from behind, and it does not affect the structure of the piece which is very solid, very robust.

Seller's Story

Antiques are my great passion; all the items I have on auction were found at antique fairs and antique shops mainly from the Lisbon area, but also from the rest of Portugal, a country with a centuries-old history and many fabulous pieces and objects from this long journey, which I present here for auction. Only pieces of good quality, distinctly original, and obviously beautiful. Guarantee of quality and great care in the shipping of the items. Thank you.
