Cul-de-lampe Wall Bracket Console - Stuccoed and Gilded Wood - Italy (Tuscany), 19th Century
Early 19th-century wall console
Cul-de-lampe wall bracket console of Italian origin, sourced from Tuscany, dating to the 19th century.
It reflects the fine tradition of Tuscan gilding workshops, featuring a carved softwood (fir) structure coated with a gesso primer that shapes the relief of generous acanthus leaves.
The original gold leaf gilding exhibits a lovely patina of age, revealing areas of the underlying red bole (Armenian bole). The top shelf is painted in faux antique green marble, creating a beautiful contrast with the gilding.
With its proportions and dramatic relief, this console serves as an ideal wall support for displaying collectibles, busts, sculptures, or other curiosity cabinet pieces.

It comes from an old cellar-laboratory in a Parisian pharmacy. The bottles had not moved since the late 1950s on the shelves. The cellar had served as a laboratory for medical analyses and a laboratory for magistral preparations of the pharmacy from 1900 until around 1950.
