Pair of Louis XVI–Style Painted and Gilt Stone Top Consoles, Sweden circa 1900

A handsome pair of consoles from Sweden, crafted with the balanced proportions and refined ornament that define the late neoclassical taste. Each piece features a painted and gilt frame that supports a heavy stone top, highlighting the era’s focus on architectural symmetry and restrained elegance.

Circa 1900, this pair was made during a period when Swedish makers revisited the classic Louis XVI style with a distinctive, northern sense of clarity.

Finished in a refreshed white paint with gilded accents and fitted with later stone tops that complement the original frames. Rooted in the Neoclassical tradition, these consoles reflect the enduring influence of the Louis XVI style, which remains a favorite for its ability to bring a sense of order and sophisticated charm to both traditional and modern interiors.
