Italian gilt iron rope and tassel wall mount console with a white marble top, circa 1960s. An exquisite console of a full-bodied, sculptural form with a cohesive design of draping twisted ropes punctuated by tassels. The white marble has large, soft swirls of gray and tan veining and is fitted within the base and is removable. The gilt displays fading and an aged patina to the finish lending it a warm character with softened grandeur. A perfect size console that may be used throughout the home, nicely proportioned for a stair landing, by a formal entry, powder room or salon. A beautiful statement piece with great versatility that offers the beauty and functionality of a floating console but also offers the convenience of an elegant shelf.
