A rare and highly refined European Baroque Period (1600-1750) parquetry inlaid papeleria cabinet - bargueño on later early 19th century stand. Dating to the early 18th century, Mediterranean Europe, most likely Northern Italy, possibly Spain or Flemish territories, this scarce high-end piece of furniture was typically reserved for only wealthy merchants and nobility, used for storing and traveling with important documents, business papers, writing correspondence, coins and valuables. Hand-crafted by a highly skilled master artisan and a reflection of the finest workshops, this tabletop cabinet features a rectangular solid wood case case crafted of quality top choice, elaborately veneered in matched geometric inlays, with intricate finey arranged round string work, precious rosewood banding, and luxurious exotic molted tortoiseshell-effect panels, adding subtle color, warmth and depth with distinct mottled blends of warm rich browns, ambers, orange and red. The portable open-front cabinet features six drawers arranged in two columns, each with hand cut dovetail joinery and mounted with the original ornate gilt bronze ormolu escutcheons, raised on bulbous feet. Resting atop a custom-made trestle base stand, executed in Spanish Baroque taste, crafted of solid walnut, having a conforming platform top finished in matching geometric veneering and banding, rising on ring-turned wooden legs, joined by decorative s-shaped black iron stretchers. Boasting a highly attractive patina, authentic wear, with antique character marks, rustic charm, and rich historical depth that can only be acquired over very long periods of time and use. This elegant, interesting, functional chest on stand is an ideal focal point in a classic old world setting or as a sophisticated contrast in modern spaces. - Dimensions: (approx) Overall: 54.25" Tall, 38" Wide, 13.5" Deep; Cabinet: 21.5"h, 35"w, 10.5"w; Stand: 33.25"h, 38"w, 13.5"d; Keywords: Similar to a coffer cassone collectors cabinet of curiosities specimen exhibition cabinet bargueno Vargueno Taquillon...

PRESENTING AN ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING 19C French Empire Style Style Complete Bedroom Suite/Set. HIGHLY, IMPORTANT AND UNIQUE Empire Style Bedroom Suite or Set from circa 1880. The Suite/Set is almost completely original, save the bed, which was originally twin size, but professionally commissioned to be customized and converted into a Euro King Size for modern practicality. The quality of the conversion matches the quality of the suite/set. All pieces have gilt bronze mounted fittings; beautiful patina, beautiful parquetry; beautiful carrara marble tops, simply stunning! About 10 years ago, I saw the ‘identical twin’ of the Commode in an Antique Store on Central Park in New York, however it had a less desirable green marble top (IMHO), and they were looking for 30k USD for the Commode, on its OWN! This Suite/Set is SO GOOD that it is the main exhibit in our rear Showroom. Not marked but under the marble top of the commode there are 2 signatures in pencil (1) M. Le Youters (?) and (2) M. Daneels. You will NOT find another complete suite/set like this ANYWHERE! AS A BONUS: We have curated and sourced (recently) a Pair of Monumental French Empire Wall Sconces which are a ‘PERFECT’ match for this bedroom set! (See pics) These sconces are being sold separately BUT they really COMPLETE the entire bedroom! The Suite/Set includes: European King Size Bed (Headboard, Baseboard, side panels and central support bracket). 2 Matching Bedside...

Andre Antoine Lardin, also known as N.B. Lardin was born in 1724 and died on 10 August 1790. He held his master's title from 1 July 1750 and was particularly respected for the exceptional quality of his veneering / marquetry. A well known and regarded maître ébéniste, Lardin’s career is somewhat thinly documented, most likely due to the upheaval and record destruction during the Revolution, notably when the guilds in Paris and elsewhere were abolished in 1791. Lardin worked for various marchand-mercier (furniture dealers) and probably also for a private clientele. He ran his workshop first in the Rue de Charenton and from 1770 in the Rue Saint-Nicolas. His two sons, André Antoine II and Louis François, worked with him for some time and the second-named became his successor in the Rue Saint-Nicolas. Lardin is known to have worked for the marchands André-François Carré, this superb commode having almost most certainly been commissioned through the intervention of one of these fashionable dealers. The marchand-mercier André-François Carré, is recorded rue Froidmanteau, "Magasin de glaces, porcelaine ébénisterie et curiosités pour les cabinets d'histoire naturelle." Carré also worked with two vernisseurs (vernis Martin): Porchon and Prévost. All of Lardin's furniture is classic in form and decor, well crafted and mostly veneered in rosewoods or violet wood. Lardin worked in the taste of the time with geometric patterns, cartouche fields and simulated fluting. Furniture with elaborate inlays such as birds, trophies, urns, landscapes, or flowers and sunburts such as this stunning example appear more rarely. The stamp JME stands for Jures Menuisiers Ebeniste and notes the guild affiliation of the master. The Corporation des Menuisiers-Ébénistes was a French craft guild which was concerned with the profession of woodworking. Some JME stamps are worn down from the marble slab over the years and no longer apparent, but in this case lacking the JME stamp is likely indicative of work made prior to reaching maître ébéniste (master cabinetmaker), denoting an early and exceedingly scarce example.

A Very Fine French 19th century Louis XV Style Ormolu-Mounted Kingwood and Satinwood Parquetry Vernis Martin Decorated Meuble D'Appui Side-Cabinet by François Linke (1855-1946) - Index Number 204 - Paris. The serpentine Griotte de Campan Rouge marble top above a single bombé door painted with a scène of a couple running through the forest flanked by cupids and angels over a waterfall, the interior fitted with one wooden shelf, the front angles each with a scrolling foliate clasp, the bombé sides decorated with square parquetry fields, on cabriole legs and acanthus-cast sabots. The lockplate engraved 'Ct. LINKE - PARIS'. The ormolu cast stamped 'FL' on the back. Circa: Paris, 1890-1900. François Linke (1855-1946) was one of the most celebrated ébénistes of his time. Born in Pankraz, Bohemia, Linke moved to Paris in 1875 and six years later established independent ateliers at 170, rue de Faubourg St. Antoine. As was the practice among contemporaries and noteworthy predecessors, such as Alfred Beurdeley and Henry Dasson, Linke initially produced furniture derived from styles popular during the 18th century ancien régime. By 1900, his worldwide reputation as an individualistic master of high quality furniture was already established. However, with a huge display, placing his extravagant pieces in room settings and winning the Médaille d'Or for his Grand Bureau...

This striking German Tramp Art chest of drawers dates to the 19th century and exemplifies the highly labor-intensive folk carving tradition associated with Central European vernacular furniture. Constructed in softwood, the chest is entirely covered in dense, repetitive chip-carved geometric motifs, creating a richly textured surface across the drawer fronts, sides, and base. The façade is organized with four drawers, each fitted with original brass hardware that provides a warm contrast to the carved wood surface. The top features a checkerboard-style plank construction, further reinforcing the handcrafted character of the piece. The carving is notably deep and consistent, suggesting skilled, time-consuming manual work rather than decorative surface tooling. The proportions and solid build give the chest a strong architectural presence, making it suitable not only as storage but also as a focal decorative object in an interior. Pieces of this type are often associated with itinerant or workshop-based folk traditions in German-speaking regions, where Tramp Art techniques were widely practiced in the late 19th century. An inscription visible on the back—executed in reverse and likely an early ownership mark—appears to be Germanic in origin, further supporting the Central European attribution. This chest would integrate naturally into interiors favoring folk art, rustic European, Brutalist, or collected eclectic styles, and stands as a compelling example of authentic 19th-century Tramp Art furniture.

Early and important Tomaso Buzzi dining room server cabinet embellished with ornately detailed marquetry depicting the entrance to the ‘Bosphorus Straits’. The artwork is an imaginative rendition of one of the most economically and geopolitically important locations on the planet, namely, the vital trade route between East and West through the ancient city port of Constantinople or modern-day Istanbul. The piece reflects the influences of various historic Empires in the region, including Egypt in North Africa to the North West, and The Greek and Roman Empires to the North East, and the Turks to the East. The scene portrays a time when countless battles occurred in these provinces in order to control the flow of Maritime trade between the Continents of the Northeastern Hemisphere and The Orient or the Far East, along the ‘silk road’. The illustration includes numerous architectural icons including the Pyramids of Giza, Roman Colosseums, Roman Aqueducts, Greek Acropolis style buildings, The Galata Tower, The Obelisk of Theodosius, Rumelifeneri Castle, and The Blue Mosque of Istanbul amongst others. A variety of seafaring vessels, marine life, and geological landmarks are also included in the panorama. This masterwork was executed by Buzzi during his tenure at the school of arts and crafts in Sao Paulo Brazil in the late 1920s. This was during the time he joined the "Novecento Milanese" Group and began to collaborate with Gio Ponti on the newly developed Design Magazine, Domus. The cabinet was showcased as a centerpiece in the 8th Triennale of Modern Decorative Arts in Monza, Italy in 1930. It is well documented and retains the original brass plaque from the Institutional Authority of the Arts in Brazil. A copy of a promotional postcard from the exhibition signed by Buzzi and featuring this cabinet is part of the Buzzi Archive. Crafted from indigenous Brazilian...
