Small renaissance cabinet
ORIGIN : FRANCE
PERIOD : END OF THE 16th CENTURY
Measures: height: 167 cm
length: 123 cm
depth: 58 cm
This small two-part unit with harmonious proportions opens with four front leaves and two belt drawers. It rests on a molded base.
The uprights and the central frame of the lower body are adorned with long stylized palmettes. They frame the four leaves on which unfolds a vegetal decoration made of stems and leaves sculpted in symmetry around two mascarons topped with feathers. The two panels of the leaves are dimpled in a molded frame.
Windings of acanthus leaves decorate the two drawers.
The panels of the upper body are carved with beautiful foliage arranged around a lion's muzzle.
On the uprights, acorns and small fruits appear in the middle of the leaves and stems.
Two consoles support a slightly overhanging cornice. The entablature is embellished in its center with a winged putti head and a vegetal decoration.
The side panels are simply molded.
This cabinet stands out for its elegance and the quality of its sculpture. The motifs of the friezes as well as the panels are varied and the ornamentation is worked with great refinement.

16th Century Renaissance Two-Bodied Cabinet
Located in Saint-Ouen, FR
Former collection Altounian
At the beginning of the reign of Henri II (1547-1559) the furniture’s ornamentation evolves. The few medieval motifs that were still used are eventually relinquished. Furniture becomes more sober showcasing moulded panels and perfect architecture. Cabinet-makers use ornaments such as curved fluted or plain columns, feather quills, roses or winged putti heads. High-relief carving becomes more scarce and compositions lighter. To that end cabinet-makers draw inspiration from Fontainebleau motifs filtering them and adapting them to French taste.
During this period cabinet-makers turn into a kind of architects. Indeed the architectural balance of furniture is the centre of their concerns. The study of Antic formulas is then a necessity. From this care given to proportions appear refined cabinets with pure lines.
This style is characteristic of the reign of Henri II and disappears soon after under the regency of Catherine de Medici (1560-1574) when an abundance of high and low-relief ornaments comes back on furnitures.
