Renaissance Walnut Dresser

About the Item

The Middle Ages dresser is a piece of furniture divided in two parts. The bottom part is open while the upper part is full and closed. The upper part is decorated with an abundance of carving on the front and the sides. It is made up of two doors and three uprights decorated with Corinthian capitals ribbed pilasters. On each of the doors and on the sides of the upper part, the design is centred by a floral medallion with a braided border. This is then surrounded by carvings depicting cut-out leather. Two elongated balustered legs, with heavily ribbed shafts, support two belt drawers decorated with egg and tongue moldings. There is an ornamented rim at the very bottom of the dresser.

    Located in Saint-Ouen, FR
    Original lock and key This piece of furniture shows no recess on its upper part. It opens with four folding-doors and two drawers within the belt. The key bears the date 1524 above cross motifs. Burgundy and Lyon regions subordinated themselves to architecture in a different manner than the other french schools. Rather than using particularly columns and pediments pieces of furniture from Lyon borrow architecture’s organization principles and rigorous designs. On the upper body a strong feeling of balance and symmetry appears with the folding doors reliefs. Swags of flowers and fruits held with knot cloth centered by a man seating on his arms. Here profiles, masks and chou de Bourgogne mingle with the structuring scrolls. The two lateral terms wear draperies and the goddess Diana in the center wears a belt of fruits similar to Hugue Sambin’s designs (Termes de Diane et de Venus, 1554, BNF). The two palm-leaves enriched drawers and the alternating scrolls belt balance the weight of the cornice with its alternatings consoles and tops. The lower body is also adorned by three terms with a feminine one in the center, all three are wearing fruits on their heads. The folding doors are centered upon a motif of cut cuirs by a mask in high relief. Wearing a feathered tiara...
