HISTORIC PROVENANCE
The Console Table Matthias is inspired by a pair of magnificently ornate British Console tables (ca. 1740) thought to be influenced by an unfinished drawing by the designer and carver Matthias Lock (British, ca. 1710–ca. 1765). The Met’s tables, made from carved and gilded pine with a modern scagliola top of fine plaster, feature details such as large shell motifs, classical masks, lion's paws, curling acanthus leaves, and a running Vitruvian scroll, typical of the British version of the French Rococo style. The Console Table Matthias is a faithful reproduction crafted in an antiqued gold finish with an elegant green marble top.
