Description
DINING ROOM OR DRINK-SERVING CABINET, Made of veneered wood with marquetry decoration featuring ornate frames and cartouches. It opens via two drawers situated above two doors, revealing a shelf. It stands on curved legs joined by a crossbar and fitted with latticework. Burning mark: ‘CP’ crowned with an anchor, formerly belonging to the Duke of Choiseul and subsequently to the Duke of Penthièvre at the Château de Chanteloup. Transitional period. Beautiful ornamentation of chiselled and gilded bronze, such as foliage-decorated handles with shells, lock plates and foliage-decorated feet. Top in breccia marble, surrounded by an openwork moulding. Height: 103 cm; Width: 86 cm; Depth: 33 cm (restorations). This piece is reminiscent of the work of Jean-François or Simon Oeben; a chest of drawers attributed to him was presented at Sotheby’s on 23 September 2020 (lot 98), also from the same château.
