FAQs

Console tables from the 18th century were typically designed to stand against a wall, frequently positioned beneath a mirror in grand reception rooms. Characterised by ornate hand-carved bases and heavy stone tops, these tables reflected the architectural and decorative trends of the Rococo, Baroque, and Neoclassical eras.

These tables were generally constructed from dense hardwoods such as oak, walnut, or beech for the carved structural base, which was often gilded, painted, or left natural. Tops were routinely crafted from imported thick-cut marble, breccia, or slate to provide a durable, heat-resistant surface.

Authentic pieces feature signs of period craftsmanship, including hand-cut joinery, irregular hand-carved motifs, and natural shrinkage in the wood along grain lines. Additionally, period marble slabs often show hand-chiselled undersides and historical surface wear consistent with age.

An antique console table serves as a focal point in entryways, hallways, or behind a sofa in open-plan spaces. Pairing a heavily carved carved base with minimalist modern lighting or contemporary artwork creates an effective textural contrast.

Clean marble surfaces using a pH-neutral cleaner to prevent etching on porous stone, wiping spills immediately. Dust the carved timber base with a soft dry brush or microfiber cloth, avoiding harsh chemical sprays that strip historical finishes or patinas.
