About the Item
A superb pair of English Regency-period corner étagères (or open corner shelves). Constructed in Gonzalo Alves prized for its rich figuring, serpentine shaped fronts with graceful cabriole legs and scalloped aprons, ormolu mounted on the legs and edges with decorative Rococo-style acanthus and scrollwork. These elegant and finely crafted pieces reflect the late Georgian / early Regency aesthetic, with hints of Louis XV Rococo influence, which was fashionable during the English Regency revival of French taste.
Three shelves per unit, edged with delicate pierced brass galleries, characteristic of refined Regency craftsmanship.
Corner étagères like these were fashionable additions to refined interiors in the early 19th century, particularly in drawing rooms or libraries, often used to display porcelain, bronzes, or books. The use of gilt bronze mounts and fine veneers reflects French influence, which was widespread among English elite decorators during the Regency period.

Circa 1830
English
Footnote:
These opulent English cabinets, conceived in the Louis XIV style, employ an array of exotic materials which when coupled with the finely chased gilt-bronze mounts point to a commission of some importance. The vivid brèche sanguine marble tops were mined in Algeria - a source of exceptional marbles championed by British diplomat and naturalist Sir Lambert Playfair (1828 –1899) following a visit in 1880 – and the highly prized Japanese lacquer panels would have originally formed part of an Edo period chest...
