Beautiful Late 19th Century Gilt Bronze and Sevres Style Dressing Table

About the Item

A beautiful late 19th century gilt bronze-mounted Louis XVI sèvres style dressing table. This wonderful and rare table is mounted by over twenty three individual porcelain plaques depicting flowers, cherubs and landscape scenes with lovers. The mirror is flanked on each side by bronze candelabra and large cherubs playing trumpets. A single, center drawer with a spring-loaded secret release, standing on four tapered legs with a stretcher. In late 1739 - early 1740 the Sèvres Porcelain Factory opened in the Royal Château of Vincennes, Sixteen years later in 1756 the factory moved to the village of Sèvres located outside of Paris and in route to Louis XV's Palace of Versailles where it became the preeminent porcelain manufacturer in Europe. When the company ran into financial difficulties, the King who had become an avid client bought out the shareholders and became the sole owner. The factory remained in the royal family until it was nationalized following the French Revolution. The range of objects produced in the first half of the nineteenth century was enormous, as were the types of decoration that they employed. The Sèvres factory produced ninety-two new designs for vases. The factory is still in production today.
