Lot Essay

The bold muscularity of these impressive console tables, with their voluted supports terminating in zoomorphic hoof feet, relates to other tables in the same spirit attributed to Liguria, notably a table sold Semenzato, Rome, 25 October 1990 (illustrated in A. González-Palacios, Il Mobile in Liguria, Genoa, 1996, p. 148), and another formerly in the collection of Craig Wright, sold Sotheby's New York, 3 October 2006, lot 68 ($54,000 inc. premium).
