Antique Gustavian Swedish Demilune Console was hand-crafted with austere, tailored lines from solid elmwood.  The intriguing grain of the wood was allowed to shine forth through the finish, which retains a natural coloration very pleasing to the eye.  Such half-circle tables have been popular for centuries, providing a display surface or a convenient place to empty one's pockets depending upon one's whim.  The semi-circular top was formed from solid planks, as were the two apron sections which connect the three subtly tapered legs.  What an elegant way to be greeted upon arriving home!
Circa early 1900s
