Catalogue Note
Henri Jacob, menuisier reçu maître en 1779
Cette console est extrêmement similaire à une paire de consoles vendue récemment par Christie's à Paris, le 16 décembre 2003, lot 347.
Ce modèle est également à rapprocher, notamment dans le traitement des pieds et la simplicité de la ceinture, de la console livrée par Georges Jacob, vers 1780 pour la chambre des bains de madame Adélaïde à Versailles. Une entretoise identique se retrouve quant à elle sur la console livrée pour le petit salon de Mesdames au château de Bellevue.
