19th Century French Walnut Bonheur Du Jour
Located in Chelmsford, Essex
A beautifully crafted 19th-century French Bonheur du Jour (lady’s writing desk), showcasing classic Louis XV-inspired design. Made from rich walnut, this elegant piece features an upper glazed cabinet with shaped glass and two interior shelves, resting above a bank of six small drawers. Below, the shaped writing surface leads to two spacious drawers, all adorned with ornate gilt-bronze (ormolu) mounts in the Rococo taste.
The whole stands gracefully on cabriole legs, with additional ormolu mounts on the knees and feet. The sinuous form and high-quality craftsmanship highlight the fine detailing and curves typical of French design during this period.
This piece originates from France and dates to the mid-to-late 19th century. It is constructed from solid walnut, with its original ormolu mounts and escutcheons intact. The cabinet includes a glazed upper section with two interior shelves, a shaped serpentine front, and functional drawers. The cabriole legs and scalloped apron add to its elegance. It is in excellent antique condition with a rich, warm patina.
This would make an exquisite hallway accent, bedroom writing desk, or collector’s display cabinet...
