About the Item
A Beautifully Crafted 19th Century Venetian Mirrored Bureau Bookcase in Briar Wood
This elegant piece features an upper section crowned with a handsome, architectural serpentine pediment. Below, the cabinet displays wonderful concave sides adorned with raised panel decoration. The interior is lined with aged velvet fabric and houses three shelves, all enclosed by mirrored doors framed with attractive moulding. Original working lock and key included.
The lower half continues the theme of elegant concave curves and fielded panels. The fall-front bureau opens to reveal a large central cubby hole, flanked by four generously sized drawers, all finished in stunning briar wood veneers with contrasting inlay.
Beneath the bureau section lies a discreet secret drawer, followed by three additional drawers, offering ample storage. All drawers retain their original working locks and key. The entire piece stands gracefully on petite, elegant legs.
A most attractive, beautifully crafted, and functional piece of antique furniture, made by the skilled craftsmen of this Italian region.

Antique Serpentine French Marquetry Cabinet Kingwood Marble Ormolu Napoleon III
Located in London, GB
A magnificent, gorgeous and lavishly decorative antique French kingwood inlaid marquetry serpentine cabinet with marble top. Dating from around the 1920s and made in the Napoleon III style, this stunning and practical scene-stealer makes a very useful cabinet and will enhance any setting with its fabulously ornamental and luxurious bygone Gallic aesthetic.
Impressively sized, wonderfully multi-toned and having a beautifully flowing and rare serpentine shape with substantial rounded front corners and feet, this show-stopping cabinet is adorned throughout with rich golden kingwood veneer interspersed with wonderfully intricate floral and border inlays of boxwood and other multi-toned woods. It has a heavy and shapely chamfered white marble top with pale grey and pink striations, which is not fixed but sits perfectly on top. The cabinet is finished with highly decorative and eye-catching gilt ormolu metalwork embellishments.
The hours of exacting work taken to craft such a fabulous piece is staggering to think about. As well as being such an attractive piece it is also very practical, having a large upper drawer with ormolu pulls and a door revealing two shelves.
All in all this is a gorgeous, stunning and practical antique French marquetry cabinet...
