AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Elegant wall console in carved and gilded wood with a natural marble top, inspired by neoclassical/Empire. The piece stands out for its rich and balanced decoration, composed of an egg-and-dart frieze, sculpted rosettes, acanthus leaves, and an imposing central support formed by two symmetrical volutes, ending in an ornate base.

The top is made of pinkish-brown marble with natural veining, with a contoured edge and a rounded profile, imparting great sophistication to the whole.

It features a front drawer, discreetly integrated into the structure and equipped with a metallic rosette-shaped handle, offering a small storage space.

* Entrance hall;
* Living room;

Seller's Story

I am passionate about art, antiques, and decorative objects with historical and aesthetic value. I carefully select unique pieces for auction, prioritizing those that stand out for their originality, quality, and history. I have a special affinity for antique mirrors inspired by the work of Alphonse Mucha, acquired from private collections and antique shops in Portugal and France. I also place great importance on pieces made of carved wood, especially in gilded relief, which represent the refinement and craftsmanship of classical decorative arts.
