Italian 18th Century Painted Console Table
$7,800.0035.50"H x 41.75"W x 20.50"D
Dimensions: 35 ½” H x 41 ¾” W x 20 ½” D
An extraordinary parcel gilt and polychrome console table from Italy, circa 1780, which has miraculously retained its handpainted, stylized Neoclassical illustrations in green, yellow, and red. As if an artifact from Pompeii, whose rediscovery and excavations along with the town of Herculanaeum where shaping 18th century fashion, the table top features an illustration of a Greek-style vessel (krater) depicting a reclining male youth joined by a harpist to the left and a character with an offering of fruit to the right. Spanning the apron of the table is a repetitive line of palmette design in black over a pistachio-green background, which may be “lacca povera” – a type of decoupage that made works such as this more cost-effective. The tops of the square legs feature a geometric design in gold gilt–reminiscent of a Greek Key–before tapering to the floor. This antique console manages to span two millennia of decorative arts traditions (from the ancient world to the 18th century revival of them) and yet still feels original for the modern interior by its own artistic merits. Gently cleaned and polished with a French paste wax to preserve the delicate patina. Please view the detailed images to see the current condition as there are multiple areas of loss and craquelure.

French Art Nouveau Gilt Console Table

Dimensions: 29 ½” H x 39 ½” W x 17 ½” D
French Art Nouveau giltwood console table circa 1900, a sculptural piece of furniture that expresses the artistry of the period when every aspect of interior design was an opportunity to minimize the geometry of the built environment softened with biomorphic references. This example has a shaped, white marble top that is slightly lobed at the front corners flowing in line with the gently arching splay of the two legs (the only legs meaning the piece needs to be secured to a wall for safety). An entanglement of floral and ribbon carvings decorate the bowed profile, which meet in the center of the apron as a pendant with a single flower. Note how the smooth luster of the gilded finish is truly dazzling to behold, like a piece of fine jewelry for the home. A stretcher joining the legs seems to make a connection to the poetry of Japanese floral arrangements,using the slight asymmetry for visual tension. Please view the detailed images to see the current condition as there might be some previous repairs to the legs. Marble shows the expected patina of dark spots and fine scratches.

Shop Vintage & Antique Console Tables
If you’re looking for a uniquely versatile piece of furniture, you’re on the right product page. An antique console table can be the subtle piece you need to fill a tight space. In other instances, it can be the main attraction of a room. It all depends on what you want, and at Fireside Antiques, we have an extensive collection.
An Antique Console Table for Every Space
Console tables are known for their shallow depth, making them a great choice to place against a wall. However, they are also often placed on their own in a hallway or against a couch. The ornamental designs of antique consoles put them a league above the average side table.
Read on to see just a few of the varieties of consoles that we have to offer. We have many more in our 18,000 square foot showroom, all of which are logged in our online inventory.
Demilune Consoles
The word “demilune” means half-moon in French, which references the curvature of demilune consoles’ tabletops. Demilune consoles can be made of different materials. Some of our pieces, such as our 19th-century Italian options, have marble tabletops and ornately carved legs. Other smoother, sleeker 19th-century French antique console tables are made of high-quality mahogany.
Server Tables
Server tables are unique in that they provide storage space as well as decoration. In our collection, you’ll find options with supplementary slide-out panels, wide, shallow drawers, or sometimes both, maximizing their effectiveness in your space. Servers are often favored for the kitchen or dining room but can be a great fit as a sofa table as well.
From beautiful 19th-century French mahogany servers to English walnut and beech servers, every antique server in our inventory has only gotten better with the passage of time, allowing the wood to develop a lovely shine.
Empire Consoles
Typically, empire consoles have a shelf that reaches across the bottom, supported by the table’s legs. Sometimes the shelf is narrow and more decorative, but it can also be more functional. These bottom shelves are excellent for displaying books, elegant vases, cute storage baskets, or any other item that is a good fit for your needs.
Empire antique console tables are among the more common styles, and we are lucky to have several in our showroom. Many are constructed of rich antique mahogany, and some also have beautiful marble tabletops.
No matter what type of antique console table you’re looking for, you’re sure to find it right here at Fireside Antiques.
