Period Louis XVI Small Marble Top Corner Cabinet

About the Item

This fine and small Enconignure (corner cabinet) is constructed of book-matched and quarter paneled Tulip-wood veneer bordered by marquetry line inlays and marquetry stop fluting at the corners. All of this is enhanced with gilt bronze mounts thru-out. The cabinet is topped with a good liver and cream-colored marble top. The top is an old replacement but still more than likely a 100 years old itself. The piece is classical in its design with a bold yet simple directness. It retains much original color and patina but is still fresh and usable.
