About the Item
French antique semainier in the Louis XVI style. This piece is made of solid wood construction, primarily mahogany that has been fully ebonized and finished with a lustrous French polish of museum-quality. There are seven dovetailed drawers representing the seven days of the week that give this piece its name – in French “semaine” means week. The drawers all feature two gilt brass ring pulls. The piece is supported by tapered legs capped with brass. There is a Carrara marble slab top original to the piece. It is in very nice antique condition – the photos accurately depict the condition.
Louis XVI Style refers to the style defined by the period in France under the reign of King Louis XVI (1760-1789) — the last French monarch before the Revolution. Inspired by the discoveries of Pompeii and Herculaneum, this era saw a revival of Greek and Roman styles. There was a sharp movement away from the Rococo style, as curved lines and heavy ornamentation became unfashionable, giving way to clean, straight lines. Restrained, geometrical forms were preferred and stylized references to classical Greek architecture were recaptured. Furniture and interiors were refined, sophisticated, calm and symmetrical.
