Description from the seller
**Console in Louis XVI style** with Marble Top – **20th Century**
Elegant **Louis XVI style** console, crafted in the **20th century** and characterized by neoclassical lines of great balance and refinement. The carved and gilded wood structure is topped by an elegant **light marble top**, which gives the piece prestige and luminosity.
The lower rail is embellished with a rich continuous frieze of **rosettes and classical motifs**, while the fluted legs rest on a refined frame with **cross stretcher** centered by a turned vase-shaped element, typical of the neoclassical decorative repertoire. The meticulous carving work and gilding enhance the elegance of the whole.
A piece with striking presence, ideal for entrances, drawing rooms and formal spaces, where it can be enhanced with mirrors, lamps or decorative objects. An example of **high-quality decorative cabinetmaking**, it preserves a pleasant patina and slight signs of time consistent with the age and use of the piece.
For the **mirror with imperial eagle**, however, I would opt for a separate entry and would undoubtedly define it as **Empire style**, because the eagle with spread wings and the crown of oak leaves are typical symbols of the Napoleonic imperial repertoire.
Console dimensions: 87 × 90 × 43 cm.
Mirror dimensions: 110 × 82 cm.
