FAQs

Originating in 18th-century Europe, wall-mounted console tables were created as architectural accents designed to be secured against a wall. Characterised by single S-scroll or monopod support legs, classical foliage motifs, and fitted marble tops, they were frequently placed beneath large mirrors to reflect light in grand reception rooms.

These tables were typically carved from softwoods such as pine or lime wood, then coated with layers of gesso plaster. Hand-applied gold leaf was applied using water or oil gilding techniques to achieve a burnished metallic finish, capped with shaped marble or granite slabs.

Authentic pieces feature signs of hand-carving in the timber framework, natural cracking or oxidisation within the gesso, and uneven wear to the gold leaf showing red or yellow bole preparation underneath. The underside of original stone tops generally shows hand-chiseled tool marks rather than modern machine cuts.

A pair of gilt console tables can be styled symmetrically flanking a doorway, fireplace, or central artwork in an entryway or hallway. Combining classical giltwood detailing with clean-lined modern art creates a balanced, sophisticated contrast in contemporary settings.

Giltwood surfaces should be dusted lightly using a soft, dry ostrich feather brush or microfibre cloth, avoiding water or chemical cleaning agents which dissolve historical gesso. Marble tops should be wiped with a damp cloth using neutral pH soap and kept free from acidic substances.
