Clémence French Provincial Half Moon Console Table, Walnut Timber & Black Iron

A demi-lune console with warm walnut turned legs, a natural fir top and a slim band of matte black iron sweeping the base.

Clémence is a French Provincial half-moon console with three turned timber legs in a warm walnut tone, capped at the top with matte black iron cuffs that meet a curved arch beneath the timber top. A second band of black iron loops the base, tying the three legs together at floor level. The top is natural-finish fir with a softly worn edge along the curved front. Every surface is hand-finished, so the legs read as genuinely aged with light distressing at the feet rather than factory-fresh.

At 80 cm wide, 35.5 cm deep and 76 cm tall, Clémence is sized for the spaces other consoles overshoot: narrow hallways, landings, the wall behind a sofa, a window bay. The flat back lets her sit flush against a wall. Style her with a framed botanical print, a pair of aged candlesticks and a cherub, slip a basket of foraged stems underneath, and she reads as a piece pulled from a French country home. Available in two colourways, with the lighter version listed as Estelle Half Moon Console Table in distressed cream with gold-leaf detail.

Why we love it

• ◆ Designed for narrow spaces, the flat back and 35.5 cm depth let Clémence sit flush in hallways, landings and against a sofa where a full-depth console will not fit.
• ◆ Timber and iron, balanced, warm walnut turned legs meet a matte black iron frame at the cuffs, top arch and base band for a Provincial-meets-industrial feel.
• ◆ Hand-finished character, the timber is softly distressed at the feet and along the top edge, so Clémence slots into an established Provincial scheme without looking new.
• ◆ Generous styling top, the 80 cm wide half-moon holds a framed print, a small sculpture, a candlestick or two and a posy without crowding.

How to style it

Clémence is a foundation piece, she works hardest with the right styling. A few ways in.

• Anchor a hallway with a framed botanical print or vintage bird study, layered behind a pair of candle holders and a small cherub.
• Hang a framed mirror from our mirror collection above to anchor the wall and bounce light through the entryway.
• Slip a woven basket of dried branches or flowering stems underneath, between the legs, for a vignette that reads as gathered over time.
• For a tonal hallway, pair Clémence with her lighter sister Estelle Half Moon Console Table on opposite walls.

Care & Keeping

Wipe with a soft dry cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners and prolonged contact with water, as these can lift the finish on both the timber and the iron. Keep Clémence out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources such as radiators and fireplaces. Lift the table to reposition rather than dragging, to protect both the legs and your floor. Indoor use only.

Because Clémence is hand-finished, slight variations in timber grain, the walnut tone, the black iron finish and the light distressing at the feet are natural and add to the unique character of each piece. Colour may also vary slightly between screens, all photography is taken in natural light.
