An extraordinary pair of Italian Baroque console tables, dating from the 17th century, remarkable for their high sculptural quality and lavish decorative theatrical design.
Each console features an exuberant carved base in giltwood with silvered mecca finish, richly adorned with volutes, grotesque masks, acanthus scrolls, and allegorical figures. The carving is deeply modeled, almost three-dimensional, giving the consoles the presence of true sculptures rather than mere pieces of furniture.
