About

Dress a hallway, library, or living space with this elegant antique console table. Crafted in France circa 1870 and measuring nearly five feet in length, the tall, narrow server is built from richly light patinated oak with a warm, stripped medium-toned finish that highlights the depth of the carving and the natural grain of the wood. The shaped top sits above two deeply carved frieze drawers adorned with floral and fruit motifs, including scrolling vines and grape clusters in high relief. The apron and edges are enhanced with scalloped and gadrooned carvings, echoing Neoclassical and Renaissance Revival influences. The console is supported by turned and fluted legs embellished with foliate details and rosette medallions at the shoulders, and terminating in classic bun feet. Two open lower shelves provide generous display or storage space, making this versatile piece as practical as it is decorative. In excellent condition commensurate with age and use, this antique console offers timeless elegance and artisanal craftsmanship, ideal for refined interiors both traditional and contemporary. 59″W x 18″D x 39.5″H
