Empire Period Console Dressing Table in Mahogany, Early 19th Century

The console dressing table presented here is crafted in mahogany and flamed Cuban mahogany veneer. It is fitted with a pivoting mirror and adorned with finely chased gilt bronze mounts, including elegant fire urns on either side of the mirror, executed with remarkable refinement. Two small drawers are set on each side of the upper section.

The legs—two in the form of columns and two as pilasters—support a curved stretcher shelf. The central drawer is fitted with an inkwell and pen holder.

The top is finished with a white Sainte-Anne marble slab.

A piece of great elegance.
