Anthony Short Antiques has dated this Painted Gothic Console Table to the 19th Century.
The rectangular moulded top, with rounded corners, is set above a beautifully carved frieze of intersecting Gothic-style arches, punctuated by rosettes to each corner. The console stands on rounded column supports, united by a shaped base, giving the piece both visual weight and elegant proportions.

The later painted finish, a softly distressed turquoise green-blue, in a “shabby chic” spirit, lightens the piece and allows the carving to stand out particularly well. This sympathetic repaint offers all the character and romance of 18th-century Gothic style without the heaviness of a dark original oak patina, making it especially easy to place in modern interiors.

With its striking scale, subtle wear and beautiful patina, this console makes a strong statement in almost any setting. It would work equally well in a hallway, reception room, kitchen-diner or even as a focal point on a large landing, bringing character, texture and architectural interest to both traditional and contemporary schemes.
