Console Table
The word console means bracket, often made in the form of an S-Scroll or curve. A console table is a side table normally fixed to the wall, sometimes with receding legs, giving a bracket like effect. Introduced from France in 18th C. they are also known as pier tables, as they were often sited on the pier wall between tall windows.
