Console Table 1850 - 1860

This elaborately carved Console Table, crafted by John Henry Belter between 1850 and 1860, is a stunning example of Rococo Revival furniture. The table features a marble top and intricate, flowing scrollwork with floral and foliate motifs, showcasing Belter's signature lamination technique. Belter's innovative approach to woodworking allowed him to create furniture with complex curves and detailed ornamentation, making his pieces highly sought after in the mid-19th century. The table is currently on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
