The giltwood structure features a sober yet richly detailed design, with garlands, rosettes, acanthus leaves and beaded motifs that echo the canons of classical antiquity, reinterpreted with the grace and lightness typical of late 18th-century Genoese production.

The top is in grey-blue Bardiglio marble shaped to follow the angle.

Consoles of this kind were typically placed in reception rooms or noble salons, reflecting the cosmopolitan and cultivated taste of late 18th-century Genoese patrons, open to Parisian influences, yet deeply rooted in local decorative traditions.
