Rare 17th Century Oak and Brass 4-Door Buffet from Saint-Malo, France, C. 1690
Located in Dallas, TX
This grand and distinctive piece of furniture from Northern Brittany is known as a “buffet malouin” and was created in the late 17th century. These types of cabinets were created for important homes in the historic port city of Saint-Malo. The design, with large octagonal molded panels, double colonettes, and finely cut brass fittings, is unique to other French furniture of the period. The design was directly influenced by the Dutch mariner carpenters living in Saint-Malo at the time (the Dutch beeldenkast cabinet shows similarities)
The large four-door cabinet was carved in oak, as was most of the other “malouin” furniture pieces. It is an imposing and impressive piece, standing over 7 feet tall and nearly 7 feet wide. The front of the piece has twisted, double colonettes, multi-profiled cushion-shaped octagonal panels, and finely cut brass key hole escutcheons, drawer pulls, and lozenge plates. There are 3 drawers, 2 of which are full sized, with a smaller drawer in the center. 3 large bun feet along the front hold up the entire piece, while 2 block feet support the rear.
Each door has its own functioning key and lock, with a yet another key for the center drawer. Door and drawer panels are solid and impressive old pieces of oak, which still open and close with ease, indicating the quality of construction and great care that this piece has received over the centuries.
The “meuble malouin” in the form of a large 4 door buffet is not often easily found. Research shows photos of several models in various states that have come to surface, but they were not nearly pervasive as French case...

Small 17th Century Burr Walnut Marquetry Bureau on Stand
Located in Lymington, GB
A burr walnut and marqueterie (or marquetry) bureau on stand, of lovely rich color.
Late 17th century, William & Mary period, circa 1690.
This small antique walnut and marquetry bureau is of a rare early form, a precursor to the transition taking place towards the end of the 17th century, away from chests and document boxes, to purpose-made furniture for the growing numbers of people learning to read and write. These early bureaux were often referred to in Old English as scriptors, écritoires, secretaries, skrewtores or scrutoires, and date from the William and Mary period (1689-1702).
Very few pieces made during this short transitional period survive, and almost none exist without some restoration especially to the vulnerable walnut stands. The walnut 'barley sugar twist' legs and stretcher have been replaced long ago.
It has a stepped, fitted interior and a concealed slide reveals a secret 'well'.
The burr walnut veneered top surface most probably would have shown some arabesque marqueterie inlay, lost over time. The sides and fall remarkably retain their original burr walnut veneers and complex inlays, all of lovely rich color and patina.
Hot sand-shaded foliate lines overall.
Mounts period but not original. The lock to the fall however apparently is.
Majority of drawer linings are in walnut. The carcass is mostly in pine.
One could refer to this as a slant-front writing desk.
A similar marquetry bureau on stand with later additions, re-veneering and later stand, sold at Christies, 14-15 April 2011, lot 379, for £6,640.00. From the collection of Milton Abbey, the Dorset home of the 1st Earl of Dorchester.
Refs:
'The Shorter Dictionary of English Furniture’, Ralph Edwards CBE FSA (Hamlyn, London, Fourth impression 1972) p. 73, ills. 3 & 4, documents two almost identical examples with fine 'seaweed' or 'arabesque marqueterie' inlay panels, dated to 1690.
'A History of English Furniture, Vol 1., The Age of Oak and Walnut' by Percy Macquoid, p. 124, fig. 117 & m. 118 illustrates two closely related ''Walnut Inlaid Writing Tables''. Also a seaweed marquetry panel on p. 119, fig. 112.
Further refs:
A pattern composed of oval and shaped reserves on a burr walnut ground filled with small-scale intricate scrollwork is often described as 'Marquetrie a L' Anglaise'. This 'arabesque' marquetry is generally ascribed to the talented Royal cabinet-maker Gerrit Jensen (see Adam Bowett, 'English Furniture 1660- 1714'.) Vis also 'From Charles ll to Queen Anne' (Woodbridge, 2002) figs. 7:9-12, 7:20-21, 7:35, 7:39-40 and 7:48-49.
At this time, during the reign of William and Mary, this costly and delicate marquetry inlay became highly fashionable amongst English Royalty and the wealthy nobility. It was produced by a few select émigré cabinet-makers who worked with marquetry in London, including the famous Jan van Mekeren...
