(A Statement Piece in the Rococo Revival Wave)
Description
This striking console table is a high-impact decorative replica inspired by the late Rococo style, featuring a dramatically carved apron, pierced scrollwork, and elegant cabriole legs. Finished in warm, metallic gold paint, the table exudes theatricality and ornamental flair. The piece is intended as a bold interior accent — unapologetically decorative, unapologetically kitsch.
Though not antique, it offers all the visual power of a baroque original, reimagined for contemporary interiors that embrace contradiction and opulence with irony and wit.

Notes from the Curator
This table is a quintessential example of what defines the Neo-Kitsch trend — a modern reinterpretation of historical opulence without the weight of authenticity. Perfectly at home in a post-minimalist space or as a contrast piece in modern interiors, it functions as both furniture and commentary. Kitsch baroque is back — not to imitate history, but to play with it.
