The front is composed of two deeply recessed arches, each framed by intricate botanical carving—scrolling vines, layered petals, and textured foliage that feel almost alive in their movement. Time has softened the carving, leaving a velvety patina where the natural wood and traces of old pigment intermingle.

Vertical carved bands anchor the piece at each side, lending a sense of symmetry and architectural rhythm. The legs are particularly sculptural—rounded, heavily ornamented, and capped with a central drop finial that hangs like a weighted jewel. From the side, the console reveals its hand-built structure: quiet, sturdy, utilitarian. From the front, it reads like a fragment of an ancient façade.
