Mercury Console Table

A commanding presence at sixty-six inches wide, the Mercury Console Table by John Richard arrives in bronzed and textured metal with an iron base rendered in deep, architectural black. The marriage of aluminum and stone — marble lending its geological weight to the composition — speaks to a designer's instinct for contrast: the warm, alchemical glow of bronze set against the cool indifference of natural stone. At thirty-four inches high and a restrained sixteen inches deep, its proportions are conceived for the wall, for the entry hall, for any passage that deserves a moment of considered drama.
