Description

This description has been translated and may not be completely accurate. Click here to see the original

This elegant Louis XVI-style showcase, in mahogany and veneered rosewood marquetry, opens at the top with a drawer adorned with a superb bronze scrolled frieze featuring two refined rosette-shaped pull knobs. Just below, a double glass door features a butterfly-winged veneer, adding a touch of symmetry and finesse. These doors are fitted with an authentic, functional lock with threaded escutcheons and key.
The central part of the cabinet reveals a vast compartment closed by a toggle door, magnificently decorated with a trompe-l'œil depiction of book covers, lending the whole a bibliophile charm. At the bottom, two doors, each fitted with a Louis XVI ribbon lock and key, open onto a storage space. The doors are enhanced by a butterfly-winged rosewood veneer, while the interior features a fixed shelf.
The cut-panel uprights feature a vertical rosewood veneer on a mahogany base, with a fluted bronze drop at the top. The tapered legs are enhanced by a bronze frame. Finally, the lower crosspiece is subtly decorated with a central bronze trim.
Thanks to its finesse, exceptional craftsmanship and compact size, this showcase combines aesthetics and functionality, blending perfectly into a refined interior.
