Baker Jacques Garcia Tiered Mahogany Mirrored Beveled Glass Drybar Side Table
Located in Dayton, OH
Vintage Baker Furniture Garcia Collection drybar / etagere / side entry table / console / or sideboard. Made of mahogany with a three tiered design that features an upper mirrored shelf with gallery over two additional beveled glass shelves. Jacques Garcia, (born 25 September 1947) is a French architect, interior designer and garden designer, best known for his contemporary interiors of Paris hotels and restaurants. He is the current owner of the Château du Champ-de-Bataille, a Baroque château lying between the communes of Neubourg and Sainte-Opportune-du-Bosc. It was built in the 17th century for the Maréchal de Créqui, however, he has made significant changes to the property, most notably building the French formal garden; since his acquisition of the property in 1992. Biography The Hôtel Odéon Saint Germain in Paris, decorated by Jacques Garcia (2006) Born in 1947 to a Spanish father, Jacques Garcia showed a talent for drawing and objects of art at a young age. At the age of eight, he constructed and furnished his first structure at the home of grandparents. Thereafter he attended a school of interior design and completed his education in the applied arts. When he finished his education, he began working for a firm of contemporary architects, and created the concepts for the interiors of the Tour Montparnasse in Paris, Le Méridien hotels, and the Royal Monceau à Paris. He was also the interior architect for the Hôtel Costes and Costes restaurants, the Hotel Majestic, and the restaurant Fouquet's. In 2006, he redecorated the Hôtel Odéon Saint Germain in Paris. He purchased and restored the Château du Champ-de-Bataille in Normandy and undertook to recreate and update the large French formal garden. He also became an avid collector of furniture and royal art objects dispersed after the French Revolution. Since 1992 he is the owner of the Château du Champ-de-Bataille. For his achievements, he was named commander of the Order of Arts and Letters, and a Chevalier in the order of the Légion d'honneur. Baker History - The Begining Siebe Baker, an immigrant from the Netherlands, founds an interior woodwork and door company in 1890 in Allegan, MI, just west of Grand Rapids. The company makes its first piece of furniture three years later, a combination desk and bookcase. Hollis S. Baker, son of Siebe Baker, graduates from the University of Michigan in 1910 and joins Baker Furniture as a salesman. 1920s and 30s Baker ventures into Modernism with its Art Deco “Twentieth Century Shop,” introduced in 1925 and including several pieces designed by Donald Deskey. Hollis Baker becomes the company’s president upon his father’s death. Baker launches bedroom furniture from stage designer Joseph Urban and select furniture by noted modernist Kem Weber in 1927, leading the debut of the Modern movement in the U.S. The company introduces its Manor House collection, the first great furniture reproduction program in America, in 1932. The designs are mainly English, crafted by experts hand-picked from Europe. Two years later, Baker introduces Chinese Modern furniture to Americans at the Chicago World’s Fair. 1940s and 50s In 1941, more than 1,500 antiques collected by Hollis S. Baker are formally organized and placed on display, comprising one of the largest private furniture collections in the world. Baker introduces the Far East Collection, the first truly Asian furniture collection manufactured in the U.S., in 1949. The next year, the company popularizes Italian neoclassic design with the introduction of its first Palladian Collection, based on exhaustive study of countless museum originals. Acclaimed designer Finn Juhl partners with Baker in 1951 on the first Danish Modern furniture collection for the American market. In 1957, Baker acquires the Grand Rapids Chair Co. and begins to produce an assortment of simpler, less costly furniture under the Milling Road label. 1960s and 70s Hollis M. Baker becomes the company’s president in 1961, finding new niches in the luxury market and introducing a wealth of new collections. Baker opens a new manufacturing facility in Mockville, NC, in an effort to create the industry’s highest-quality production-made furniture. Introductions during the 1960s and 1970s included collections of country English and French Provincial furniture, as well as high-end executive desks. Collection highlights include Woburn Abbey, introduced in 1969, featuring 25 choice English antiques of the home of the Duke and Duchess of Bedford. Baker merges with a leading showroom network in 1972 to form Baker, Knapp & Tubbs, which remains one of the largest wholesale distributors in the industry. A year later, it enters the upholstery business with a new plant and division located in High Point, NC. The company launches the Historic Charleston Collection in 1976, drawing inspiration from one of the most fashionable and furniture-forward capitals of the New World. 1980 to 2000 In 1980, innovative Italian interior designer Alessandro Gambrielli Gambalogna creates a collection of approximately 25 avant garde occasional and dining room items simply known as Alessandro. A year later, Baker launched its Stately Homes Collection, with reproductions from originals found in celebrated castles and estates in the United Kingdom. The positive reception of John Saladino’s 1984 Façade Collection launch reaffirms the importance of Baker’s work with top designers around the world. Kohler Co. acquires Baker Furniture from North American Phillips in 1986, making it the cornerstone of its Interiors Group. The late ‘80s mark significant debuts, including the McMillen Collection, continental furniture drawn from the archives the much heralded New York design firm, and the Charles Pfister Collection of Art Deco furniture. Milling Road is re-introduced as a division of Baker in 1990, offering less formal, more livable furniture at a lower price point. That same year, the Smithsonian inducts the #789 Chippendale Chair into its permanent collection. In 1996, Baker introduces the Barbara Barry Collection, featuring furniture from the California-based artist and designer that draws on 30’s...

1750 Venezia Italy Wooden Red Lacquered Carved Credenza Porcelain Holder
Located in Brescia, IT
This is an exquisite and rare carved, engraved red lacquered wooden étagère and porcelain holder, with gilded details. Shaped with architectural prospects, with shelves and degrading steps. From the upper balustrade rises the cymatium shaped as volutes and entirely perforated and gilded. It is possible to count 17 pedestals or spaces suitable to set porcelain pieces. A gorgeous piece that we can say one-of-a-kind, that showcases a fine craftsmanship through meticulously carved architectural elements, and with the rare and rich red color of the lacquer. Coming out from the Tullio Silva Collection, Venezia, Italy. One of the distinctive characteristics of Venetian Baroque and Rococo furniture is the skilful use of lacquers. Lacquer is a natural resin that was very rare in the past, imported from the East and used to create smooth and colored surfaces on furniture, ready to be finely decorated with refined floral designs or exotic animals. Venetian artisans became masters in lacquer processing which required time and patience because it was made with many steps. The Venetian style deeply influenced furniture design throughout Europe, but none reached the Venetian level in terms of beauty. The skillful use of lacquer and carvings defined Venice's unique style during the Rococo period, its Golden Age.

Vintage Storage Cabinets and Antique Case Pieces for Sale: Shop Credenzas, Sideboards, Bookcases and Dressers on 1stDibs

Of all the vintage storage cabinets and antique case pieces that have become popular in modern interiors over the years, dressers, credenzas and cabinets have long been home staples, perfect for routine storage or protection of personal items. 

In the mid-19th century, cabinetmakers would mimic styles originating in the Louis XIV, Louis XV and Louis XVI eras for their dressers, bookshelves and other structures, and, later, simpler, streamlined wood designs allowed these “case pieces” or “case goods” — any furnishing that is unupholstered and has some semblance of a storage component — to blend into the background of any interior. 

Mid-century modern furniture enthusiasts will cite the tall modular wall units crafted in teak and other sought-after woods of the era by the likes of George Nelson, Poul Cadovius and Finn Juhl. For these highly customizable furnishings, designers of the day delivered an alternative to big, heavy bookcases by considering the use of space — and, in particular, walls — in new and innovative ways. Mid-century modern credenzas, which, long and low, evolved from tables that were built as early as the 14th century in Italy, typically have no legs or very short legs and have grown in popularity as an alluring storage option over time. 

Although the name immediately invokes images of clothing, dressers were initially created in Europe for a much different purpose. This furnishing was initially a flat-surfaced, low-profile side table equipped with a few drawers — a common fixture used to dress and prepare meats in English kitchens throughout the Tudor period. The drawers served as perfect utensil storage. It wasn’t until the design made its way to North America that it became enlarged and equipped with enough space to hold clothing and cosmetics. The very history of case pieces is a testament to their versatility and well-earned place in any room. 

In the spirit of positioning your case goods center stage, decluttering can now be design-minded.

A contemporary case piece with open shelving and painted wood details can prove functional as a storage unit as easily as it can a room divider. Alternatively, apothecary cabinets are charming case goods similar in size to early dressers or commodes but with uniquely sized shelving and (often numerous) drawers.

Whether you’re seeking a playful sideboard that features colored glass and metal details, an antique Italian hand-carved storage cabinet or a glass-door vitrine to store and show off your collectibles, there are options for you on 1stDibs.
