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

18th-century Italian Baroque console tables are characterized by dramatic relief carving, gilded surfaces, dynamic C-scrolls, and mythological or cherub mask motifs. Designed to stand against formal reception walls, they frequently feature marble or scagliola tops and elaborate stretcher bases.

These tables were typically carved from softwoods such as pine or lime wood, then coated with multiple layers of gesso. Water gilding using thin gold leaf was applied over a red or yellow clay bole, and topped with solid marble, porphyry, or scagliola slabs.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-carved tool marks, red clay bole showing through worn gold leaf, and shrinkage cracks along wood grain lines. The undersides and backs usually reveal rough-sawn timber, hand-forged iron fixings, and historical gesso degradation.

Position the console table against a neutral backdrop to highlight the carved silhouette. Pair it with a modern mirror or monochrome artwork positioned directly above to balance classical ornamentation with clean architectural lines.

Clean giltwood using only a dry, soft-bristled brush to remove dust, avoiding liquid cleaners or polish which dissolve gesso and gold leaf. Clean the marble top with a damp cloth and pH-neutral soap, drying immediately to prevent staining.
