An exceptionally elegant 19th-century pair of Neoclassical painted and parcel-gilt console or writing tables. The original marble top rests above a finely carved frieze adorned with gilt swags, rosettes, and a striking central mask. The tables stand on beautifully fluted, tapering legs with gilt leaf capitals and toupie feet, showcasing the refined craftsmanship of the period. The soft-painted surface, enriched with gilded highlights, gives this piece a timeless sophistication, making it a statement of grandeur in an entryway, salon, or study.
