Inspired by early 19th-century French Empire and Directoire designs, the console features a richly toned mahogany-finished case accented by fluted pilasters, ebonized columnar supports, and brass capitals and bases. Two drawers provide discreet storage, while the sweeping arched stretcher adds both visual balance and structural strength.

The dark green painted top evokes the appearance of marble, creating a dramatic contrast against the warm wood tones and black columns. The overall design is restrained and refined, allowing the quality of the materials and classical detailing to take center stage.

Equally at home in a traditional interior, a Hollywood Regency setting, or a contemporary designer space, this piece functions beautifully as an entry console, sofa table, or statement accent beneath a mirror or artwork.

Most notably, this console was acquired from the celebrated Glorya Kaufman Estate, adding a desirable layer of provenance to an already elegant furnishing.

A versatile and highly decorative piece whose architectural silhouette photographs exceptionally well and lends instant sophistication to a room. See less
