A pair of Irish George II console tables from Adams Country House Collections at Howth Castle sale.
A pair of Irish George II giltwood console tables will lead the annual Country House Collections sale at Howth Castle by Adam’s on April 27 and 28. Complete with later associated marble tops they are estimated at €60,000-€80,000. Adams say these giltwood console tables represent some of the very finest of their type to come to market in recent years. The later associated brêche violette marble tops are a striking complement to the dramatic giltwood and gesso frame beneath and further highlight the distinctive Roman style adopted by many Irish furniture makers of the mid-18th century.
The sale will be on view at Howth Castle for three days from next Saturday (April 25). Day one on April 27 is an online only sale with 381 lots. There will be a live auction at St. Stephen’s Green on April 28 from 11 am.
