A Fine Console Table in the Manner of Robert Adam Circa 1860
Constructed in gilt wood, with painted accents; the inverted Carrara marble top having outswept sides, and a thumbnail moulded edge, supported by four tapering and waisted legs having Ionic capitols, and recessed panels dressed with pendant Bellflowers, and terminating in spade feet; over, tablets having a Greek key background are adorned with lion masks within cartouches, holding ribbands; betwixt, the apron has a running swag motif; below, a gilt wood panel frames the mirrored back. Of typical strong Adam design, this console has consonances with his original designs, although the use of lion masks is unusual.
