Suffice to say the white marble top is later but fits perfectly and presents well. There are two brackets for affixing to the wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConsole tables such as this one were designed to sit flush against a wall. They came into use during the first decade of the nineteenth century and their designs were heavily influenced by archaeological discoveries. English tables would generally have a platform below the legs whereas the Irish equivalent are often made without the platform bases.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlthough presented in somewhat chequered condition, this piece therefore proves good value and remains quite hard to find in this form; perfect for an entrance hallway.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Archive","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52562612617496,"sku":"3057","price":780.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/5800\/5784\/files\/smallmarbleconsoletable3.jpg?v=1787572666","url":"https:\/\/doeandhope.shop\/products\/a-19thc-marble-topped-ebonised-parcel-gilt-console-table-c-1870","provider":"doeandhope.shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
