The furniture is embraced on the band by an elegant ornamental apparatus, characterized by the typical motifs of the neoclassical repertoire, with garlands, stylized flowers and oak shoots.
Refined festoons of laurel leaves descend from the band, giving a pleasant sense of harmony to the structure, while the four thin legs are outlined by a fluted truncated cone shape, adorned with a rich foliated capital.
The console is complete with a "Broccatello di Spagna" marble shelf, original from the time, characterized by a golden yellow background with red-purple shades.
Very good state of conservation.
Certificate of historical authenticity is issued.
The piece of furniture is accompanied by rich photographic documentation, which allows for in-depth analysis. If you wish to view it personally you are invited to visit our gallery in Riva del Garda. We remain at your complete disposal to provide you with any further information.
