French Empire Early 19th Century Mahogany Oval Gueridon by Jean-Joseph Chapuis

About the Item

The oval grey marble insert top above a single frieze drawer, with brass line and star inlay, raised on slender curved legs joined by an oval undertier, ending on slipper feet; stamped CHAPUIS to the drawer interior, for Jean-Joseph Chapuis (1765-1864 Brussels). Chapuis established his first workshop in Brussels in 1798. In 1806 he was called to value French furniture at the château de Laeken and thereafter supplied furniture for the château himself. Please note, that we have another almost identical gueridon in stock with a white marble top, which could make a great pair with this one.

  • Important Empire Early 19th Century Fauteuil by Jean-Joseph Chapuis
    By Jean Joseph Chapuis
    Located in Worpswede / Bremen, DE
    Despite his long life, very little is known about the general production of menuisier (chairmaker) Jean-Joseph Chapuis (1765-1864) and even less about his use of bent laminates, which must be viewed as the most advanced of its kind until the appearance of Michael Thonet’s work of the 1830s. The profound reverence for the classical world in enlightened circles in early 19th century Europe and the United States often resulted in the archaeological resurrection of the art, architecture, and design of ancient Greece and Rome. No chair employing the innovative technique of bending wood more boldly expresses this allegiance to the past than this armchair painted in le style antique and based on the ancient Roman sella...
