Exceptional Louis XV Mazarin Bureau Plat with Fine Marquetry and Gilt Bronze
Located in Antwerp, BE
High-Quality Italian Louis XV / Louis XVI Style Mazarin Bureau Plat — Hand-Finished Reproduction, Circa 1990-2010 This piece is a high-quality Italian reproduction, crafted circa 1990-2010 in the Louis XV / Louis XVI Mazarin style. It is not an original 18th-century antique, but rather a hand-finished homage to the French master cabinetmakers of the 1700s.

 The desk features elegant floral marquetry using walnut, maple, and other light hardwoods, with a finely proportioned Mazarin structure: multiple drawers on both sides, a central drawer above a door compartment, and cabriole legs connected by a decorative stretcher. The ormolu (gilt bronze) mounts are finely cast and richly detailed.

 This reproduction combines the timeless elegance of palace-style French furniture with modern durability and functionality. It offers the appearance and craftsmanship of antique furniture, without the fragility or price tag associated with true antiques. Perfect for luxury interiors, boutique hotel spaces, or distinguished offices.

 Please note: Only one piece is available. Contrary to previous listing details, this is not a made-to-order or unlimited item. It is a unique piece, available for immediate sale and shipment. Dimensions:
 - Width: 143 cm (56.3 in)
 - Depth: 73 cm (28.7 in) 
- Height: 85 cm (33.5 in)

 Condition:
Excellent, with only minimal, barely perceptible signs of age. Professionally maintained and showroom-ready.
