18th century. The other made to match mid 19th century. H. 83 cm. W. 115 cm.<br />

The console tables originate from the Swedish Ekolsund Palace, which dates back to<br />

the 1300s. In 1747, the castle was purchased by Heir Presumptive Adolf Frederik as<br />

the seat of newborn Prince Gustav, later King Gustav III of Sweden, who frequented<br />

the palace in the early years of his reign. Several sources mention it as having been his<br />

favourite place of residence. The palace has undergone restructuring and refurbishment<br />

several times, by architects such as C.F. Adelcrantz and J.E. Rehn.<br />
