Also Antique Furniture has dated this Regency Demi Lune Console to the 19th Century.
The substantial semi-circular top is raised on elegant turned and tapering legs united by a decorative frieze centred with a finely carved and parcel gilt musical trophy, flanked by gilt floral panels within moulded reserves. The contrasting black painted finish and restrained gilt decoration are characteristic of the Regency taste, giving the table a refined neoclassical appearance.
Of generous proportions, this table would work equally well in a hallway beneath a mirror, as a console table in a drawing room, or as a decorative side table. The elegant design and attractive original decoration make it a versatile piece for both period and contemporary interiors.
DIMENSIONS

CONDITION
There are the expected marks, knocks and scratches commensurate with age and use. The black painted finish displays wear and rubbing, particularly to the front edge of the top, together with minor losses to the parcel gilt decoration, consistent with the age of the piece. There is evidence of historic inactive woodworm to the underside of the rear edge of the top. Structurally sound throughout with an attractive colour and authentic patina.
As with all antique and vintage furniture, this piece has been used and enjoyed over many years and should be expected to show signs of age and use. We aim to describe any significant faults, repairs or alterations as accurately and honestly as possible. The photographs form an important part of the description and should be viewed alongside the written condition report. If you would like further information or additional photographs, we are always happy to help before purchase.
