Piedmontese Louis XIV Console Table In Lacquered And Gilded Wood With A Chinoiserie Top

An important Piedmontese console table of exceptional craftsmanship, made in Turin in the early 18th century, during the period when the Louis XIV style was gaining popularity in the courts and noble residences of Piedmont.
The piece stands out for its rich structure of finely carved, lacquered, and gilded wood, characterized by a refined ornamental repertoire composed of volutes, plant motifs, acanthus leaves, and exquisite openwork elements, reflecting the high level of craftsmanship achieved by Turin workshops of the time. The curved, sculpted legs are connected by an elaborate, shaped crossbar featuring a central element in the form of a flaming vase, lending the piece a striking visual balance and a sense of formal lightness.
Of particular interest is the original top decorated in the chinoiserie style, a testament to the European fascination with Oriental art that characterized aristocratic taste in the early 18th century. The decorations, executed according to the models then in vogue at European courts, further enhance the piece’s value and rarity.
The sumptuous gilding, combined with the refined quality of the carvings and the prestigious Turin provenance, makes this console a significant example of high-status Piedmontese furniture from the Louis XIV era.
A piece of great charm and rarity, intended for collectors and prestigious settings, capable of best representing the elegance and magnificence of the Piedmontese aristocracy of the early 18th century.
