Adams Style Gilt Console Table with Marble Top

19th century
Description

Very decorative and of a good size early 19th century gilt console table in the 18th century Adams style.

The proportions of this console give you the space to stand a pair of lamps or a large vase with a mirror or picture above, really is a lovely size for a large entrance hall.

The console table itself with its carved and plaster moulds with the draped garlands, tapered reeded legs and stretcher to the base give it a real elegance and the gilt itself has aged and distressed beautifully. You will see from the photos that the gilding has a lovely worn effect, so it’s perfect if you are not a fan of the fully gold gilt finishes.

The generously thick marble top has a verdigris vein running through it which works well with the old gilded finish and is shaped to match the curves of the console table.

Any queries, don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Originating in the late 18th century through the work of architect Robert Adam, this Neoclassical style emphasizes classical symmetry, delicate relief carvings, slender tapered legs, and decorative motifs inspired by ancient Roman and Greek architecture.

These tables typically feature hand-carved timber frameworks coated in gesso and gold leaf (giltwood), topped with thick slabs of natural marble such as Verde Antico, Carrara, or Breccia.

Authentic pieces show evidence of hand-carved joinery underneath, layer separation between the gesso foundation and gilding, natural wear or rubbing on high points revealing reddish bole beneath the gold leaf, and hand-cut stone borders.

Place the table in an entryway or hallway paired with a contemporary mirror mounted above, balancing the ornate gilded detailing against neutral, textured wall paint.

Dust the giltwood frame gently with a dry, soft camel-hair brush, avoiding water or chemical solvents that strip gold leaf; clean the marble top using a damp cloth with pH-neutral stone cleaner.
