Hey, would you believe this? The console pictured above is in fact sold (thank you, Melanie), but here I am sitting at this stupid computer in France, of all places, just TODAY (11 April 04) having found an IDENTICAL console, except with slightly thicker marble, in the same color palette.

Fresh off the boat...and it's been years since I've had a console as handsome and compelling as this one. The ginko leaf design was a favorite of Edgar Brandt's (not that I'm trying to elevate this by association, nah...), especially on mirrors and chandeliers. And speaking of mirrors, I suspect that I have one which would be close to perfect with this console...

Scroll for a closer view...

 

Note the high quality of the iron work, not to mention the gorgeous color and complexity of the marble. Overall dimensions: 33 wide, just under 13 deep, and the height, which is subject to where you place it on your wall, is 32 1/2. In the first picture above, I have it positioned about 6 inches off the ground, and the top is about 38 inches off the ground.
