A pair <strong>of</strong> Swedish gilt wood console tables with Ölands<br />

marble top. Late 18th century - early 19th century. One<br />

probably later. H. 83 cm. W. 115 cm. D. 50 cm. (2).<br />

The console tables originate from the Swedish Ekolsund Palace,<br />

which reaches back to the 1300s. In 1747, the castle was<br />

purchased by Heir Presumptive Adolf Frederik as the seat <strong>of</strong> newborn<br />

Prince Gustav, later King Gustav III <strong>of</strong> Sweden, who frequented<br />

the palace in the early years <strong>of</strong> his reign. Several sources<br />

mention it as having been his favourite place <strong>of</strong> residence. The palace<br />

has undergone restructuring and refurbishment several times,<br />

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