#7243 • Louis XVI–Style Giltwood Demi-Lune Console Table with Mahogany-Toned Top, 33"

Part of Historic Manor Downsizing Auction (timed auction by Prime Auction Solutions)

Status: Sold

A Louis XVI–style demi-lune console table, carved in wood with an antiqued gilt and painted surface and fitted with a warm, mahogany-toned half-round top, likely intended for use against a wall in an entry or salon. The top presents a broad, softly rounded demi-lune profile with a subtly molded edge, its rich brown finish offering a deliberate contrast to the sculptural base. Below, the frieze is encircled by a crisp band of vertical reeding (piastre-like fluting), lending a classical rhythm associated with late-18th-century Neoclassical taste. The apron transitions to four tapered, fluted legs, each articulated with squared blocks and recessed panels that read as pilasters, terminating in small, shaped feet. The overall effect is architectural and refined, evoking the Louis XVI vocabulary of ordered ornament, restrained carving, and columnar support—features widely reproduced in French and Italian Neoclassical revival console tables made for decorative display and practical surface use in formal interiors. Size: 42" x 21" x 33"
