Magnificent French Gilt Console and Mirror

This impressive French Louis XV Revival console table and mirror is a masterpiece of opulence and craftsmanship, embodying the grandeur of 18th-century style French design. The freestanding giltwood console is exquisitely carved, featuring a pierced apron adorned with rocaille and floral motifs, characteristic of the Louis XV style. Its gracefully scrolled cabriole legs, ending in elegant scroll feet, are connected by an intricately detailed pierced foliate stretcher, adding further refinement and balance to the design. The golden onyx top enhances its luxurious appeal, providing a striking contrast to the richly gilded frame.

The sumptuous mirror, designed to complement the console, is equally breathtaking.

The combination of intricate gilded carvings and luxurious materials captures the essence of French glamour, evoking the lavish interiors of the 18th century. Whether placed in a period setting or paired with contemporary décor, this magnificent ensemble brings a sense of sophistication and artistry to any home.
