This console table made from an antique teak arch incorporates a reclaimed architectural element, with its original structure and carvings forming the front of the furniture.
The arch features a large scalloped central opening, surrounded by detailed carved decoration. Botanical scrolls, foliage, flowers and relief ornamentation extend across the side uprights and throughout the upper section.
The openwork frieze above the arch is an integral part of the original antique element. It is carved directly into the teak and features a symmetrical composition of floral and botanical motifs. No additional decorative element has been added to this section.
The natural patina highlights the depth of the carvings while revealing the different shades of the teak and the marks inherent to the reclaimed architectural element.
Measuring 132 x 38 x 87 cm, this console has a relatively shallow depth, making it ideal for furnishing a wall without taking up too much space. Its generous top can display lamps, vases, frames or decorative objects in an entrance hall, living room or dining room.
Handcrafted in India around this antique teak arch, the console is a unique piece combining functional furniture with a reclaimed architectural element.
