Etruscan Console with Copper or Brass Top & Shelf

Description

The Etruscan Console with Copper or Brass Top & Shelf was inspired by furnishings of ancient Rome. Etruscan is the modern name given to a civilization of ancient Italy. Its homeland was in the area of central Italy, just north of Rome, which is today called Tuscany. Culture that may be positively identified as Etruscan developed in Italy after about 800 BC. Around 500 BC the political destiny of Italy passed out of Etruscan hands, but the decline was gradual. The last of the Etruscan cities were formally absorbed by Rome around 100 BC. Ancient Roman architecture began with Etruscan styles which later gave way to Greek influence.

The Etruscan Console with Copper or Brass Top & Shelf was designed by Shah Gilani, ISFD. Robust metal construction ensures sturdiness. The top and shelf are made by stretching heavy 18 gauge copper or brass sheet over steel frames. The top and shelf are lightly distressed and patinated for a mellow appearance. With its timeless elegance, it makes an exceptional entryway table for upscale residential and hospitality interiors. Four polished bronze glides are provided which also serve as levelers – a useful feature to have when the floor is uneven. The legs of this table are offered in a variety of finishes. Accents are polished bronze. Custom sizing is available.
