Additional Information

Notes historical bibliographic

The console of English origin shows evident references to the furniture made for royal homes, by the first quarter of the nineteenth century. In particular, comparisons are possible with furniture presented in some tables that illustrate how the ancient Cartlon House residence must have been, demolished in 1826, after George IV dismissed it, moving his apartments at Bukingham Palace. In particular, in a panel depicting the Blue Velvet Room (c. 1818), on the left wall and on the back one we can see gueridons, whose supports are made up of monopod griffons, in this case entirely gilded. Similar supports, albeit with lion faces, are found in several tables kept at Windsor Castle, made by Morel and Seddon. The console in question here is a derivation of these popular prototypes, even if the more squared lines, the ebonized griffins and the choice of using mirrors for the back panel denote a slightly later date, which can be placed around the middle of the century.
