Italian Florentine Painted Console (Louis XVI Revival), C. 1930s–1940s

Elegant Continental console in the Louis XVI revival taste, likely Florentine work. The molded apron is detailed with raised floral swags and cartouche blocks; four turned legs are united by a full box stretcher for stability and a light, balanced profile. The top features a traditional woven cane panel protected by plate glass—visually airy, yet practical for daily use. Finished in a warm, cream paint with traces of gilt (parcel-gilt) along the carving, showing an attractive, even patina.

Construction & materials: solid wood frame; applied low-relief ornament to the apron; machine-woven cane inset; plate glass top (removable).
Period & origin: c. 1930–1940, Italy (Florence), in the Louis XVI / Neoclassical revival idiom often marketed in the inter-war years.
Condition: sturdy and level; cane intact; scattered wear to paint and gilding at high points consistent with age; minor surface marks to glass from use.

A versatile piece for an entry hall, behind a sofa, or as a dining server or boutique display. Its neoclassical lines, Florentine painted finish, and cane-and-glass top make it an easy fit with traditional, transitional, or Hollywood Regency interiors.
