An Italian polychrome lacquered console table, Piedmontese late 18th century

with a rectangular mottled grey and white marble top with projecting corners above a frieze centred by a rosette flanked by panels of berried laurel with a patera at each corner on stop-fluted square tapering legs and square tapering feet

In overall very good conserved condition. The marble top is a little dirty and would benefit from a light clean according to taste. It also has some scratches and minor chips with several medium sized chips along the rear edge. Some very minor areas of retouching to the painted decoration and some very minor losses to the paint on the feet as visible from the catalogue photograph which can easily be touched up.
