About the Item

19th Century Empire Console Tuscany Italy 1820 Marble Top Bronze Fittings This extraordinary Empire console from Italy around 1820 combines elegance, master craftsmanship and historical charm. The piece of furniture is an excellent example of the classic Empire style, which is characterised by its clear design and the use of fine materials. The main feature of this console is the extraordinary marble top, whose high-quality workmanship and natural grain make the piece of furniture an eye-catcher. The contrast between the light-coloured marble and the warm wood tone gives the console a harmonious appearance. The console is adorned with fine, original bronze fittings that are richly detailed and feature typical motifs from the Empire period, such as laurel leaves and styled ornaments. These decorative elements further emphasise the prestigious effect of the piece of furniture. The solid, fluted columns with gilded capitals and bases emphasise the solid construction and stylistic austerity of the Empire style. This console is not only a stylish piece of furniture, but also an important collector's item that represents the classic elegance and artistic perfection of Italian furniture art of the early 19th century.

Pair French Empire Mahogany Gilt Consoles Jean-Jacques Werner Palais Eynard 1820

Pair French Empire Mahogany Gilt Consoles Jean-Jacques Werner Palais Eynard 1820

By Jean-Jacques Werner

Located in Epfach, DE

A rare and exceptionally well-documented pair of French Empire console tables, attributed to the celebrated Paris ébéniste Jean-Jacques Werner (Geneva 1791–1853 Paris), originating from the celebrated Palais Eynard in Geneva. Executed in flame mahogany veneered over an oak carcass, each console is fitted with a black marble top above a frieze centered by a finely chased and fire-gilt bronze mount of palmettes, a rosette, and scrolling acanthus foliage. The scrolled legs, headed by gilt-bronze acanthus capitals, terminate in bold lion's-paw feet, while the back is fitted with star-studded gilt-bronze-framed mirror plates — a hallmark of the finest Empire console design. The pair survives in exceptional original, untouched condition. Provenance: Palais Eynard, Geneva Commissioned for the Palais Eynard, built 1817–1821 for the financier and philhellene Jean-Gabriel Eynard (Lyon 1775–1863 Geneva), one of the most celebrated private residences of early 19th-century Geneva. Eynard, who made his fortune as financial advisor to the Queen of Etruria and to Grand Duchess Elisa Bacciocchi (sister of Napoleon), returned to Geneva in 1810 and later attended the Congress of Vienna alongside Charles Pictet-Rochemont.
