An impressive console table, the shaped, moulded grey and white marble top (Gris de Caunes moucheté) above a pierced serpentine frieze centred by a pierced c-scroll cartouche, continuing to the sides carved accordingly with c-scrolls and shell-motifs on a trelliswork ground. On four scrolled cabriole legs headed by a scallopshell and carved with foliage, on scrolled feet joined by a curved stretcher centered with a pierced shell ornament. Very attractive orginal marble top.
This console table fits very well in size and style with the Régence mirror (#1468).
