This Baroque masterpiece was made for Count Leopold Joseph von Lamberg, the Austrian ambassador in Rome from 1700 to 1705. The exuberantly carved base is enriched with numerous gilt-bronze mounts, a fairly unique feature for Roman furniture of this period. The top is made of re-used marble from Roman antiquity.
