Description
Introducing the Console Table Croome Court, an exquisite piece belonging to The Met x Eichholtz collection. Drawing inspiration from the delicate ornamentation of a British console table (1765) by the architect Robert Adam (British, 1728–1792) and the craftsman Sefferin Alken (Danish, active 1744, died ca. 1783) for the mansion known as Croome Court in Worcestershire, England, c our table features an antiqued white finish and marble top. Its design evokes the exquisite, almost kinetic energy of Alken’s plasterwork, seamlessly blending historical charm with contemporary elegance.
HISTORIC PROVENANCE
The Console Table Croome Court is inspired by the 18th-century collaboration between architect Robert Adam (British, 1728–1792) and his favourite carver Sefferin Alken (Danish, active 1744, died ca. 1783), which yielded a magnificent console table (1765) for the mansion known as Croome Court in Worcestershire, England. . The painted surfaces on the original evoke ancient plasterwork from Pompeii and Herculaneum, while the marble-veneered tabletop showcases an innovative technique that likely increased the table’s expense but reduced its weight.
