18th Century Breton Console

The meticulous turning of the legs and side rails of this Breton console table from the late Ancien Régime compensates for the austere workmanship of the other elements. The splendid tobacco color of the natural oak, left untreated with waxes or varnishes, is particularly striking. It is in excellent condition and required minimal restoration.
