this simple console table features an ingenious opening that allows it to be transformed into a game table, capturing the elegance and simplicity of this beautiful period. When closed, this rather narrow piece of furniture will fit into any interior; its understated style and colors allow it to blend seamlessly with modern interiors as well as period decor. The legs feature ornate columns and a double semicircle x-shaped crosspiece, centered by an urn adorned with brass ornaments in the style of medici vases.

restored by a professional cabinetmaker, some details show the marks of time: brass stringing has been repainted in some places (see photos), as well as some details such as interior cracks that in no way detract from the aesthetics of the piece. Slight cracks and small veneer chips are visible in the photos. The brass trim and ornamentation are in beautiful condition, featuring geometric and plant motifs. This piece is ready to be placed in your home for long social gatherings and other games with friends.
