Antique Consoles/Hall

The foyer, or entryway, of a home sets the tone of the abode, and it is an important place to make one’s initial design statement. Antique consoles evolved from an architectural feature to a moveable piece of furniture, and have therefore become more versatile over the years; appearing in hallways or anywhere a shallow surface is desired. Antique hall trees, known as porte manteaux in France, are always popular, and a great way to make your entrance a welcoming room into your home.
