Pair of Louis XVI Style Marble Urns Attributed to Maxime Secrétant, circa 1890

About the Item

A fine pair of Louis XVI style gilt bronze-mounted Bleu Turquin marble urns with Satyr masks, attributed to Maxime Secrétant. French, circa 1890. The bronze mounts stamped with inter-linked monogram 'SM, 818', one with 'JJ'. Maxime Secretant established a workshop producing fine quality furniture in the 18th century style at 74 rue Amelot, Paris. For some time he worked in association with his half-brother Leon Duval, who had been an apprentice with Gervais Durand, the well known ébéniste. It is exceptionally rare to find a piece of signed furniture by Secretant. Bibliography: D. Ledoux-Lebard, Denise. Le mobilier français du XIXe siècle, Les Editions de l'Amateur, (Paris), 1984; S.575.

Louis XVI Style Mahogany Stands Attributed to François Linke, French, circa 1890
By François Linke
Located in Brighton, West Sussex
A fine pair of Louis XVI style gilt bronze mounted mahogany stands, firmly attributed to François Linke. This delicate pair of mahogany pedestals or stands each have an inset green onyx top above a frieze mounted with allegorical scenes of music. The frieze contains a pull-out slide and the stands are raised on square section tapering legs headed by musical trophies and united by a shaped stretcher with a flambeau finial. An almost identical Stand, with a green onyx top, typical slender legs and shaped stretcher is illustrated by Christopher Payne in François Linke (1855-1946) 'The Belle Époque of French Furniture', p. 53, pl. 44. It is described as a Stand or gaine and titled by Linke as 'Pedestal Louis XVI acajou et bronzes dorés', index number 56. It was available with or without a slide and a drawer, priced between 400 and 500 francs. A comparable version is also shown as a pencil drawing from Linke's Daybook and illustrated in Payne, p. 474. The ribbon tied musical trophies that head the legs of each stand was a mount frequently used by Linke on a number of different items of furniture including vitrines, commodes and a Bibliothèque Louis XVI...
