About the Item

A sensational and most impressive French 19th century Louis XVI st. Ebony and Ormolu Boulle vitrine. This stunning four door vitrine is raised on a rectangular plinth centered by an ornate Ormolu palmette mount and decorated with exquisitely chased rosettes, Brass Boulle marquetry inlays, and a Rai-de-Coeur trimmed border. Above the plinth is the protruding pair of center glass doors flanked by additional doors to each side. All the doors are trimmed with Ormolu egg and dart designs with richly detailed foliate reserves in the corners. The interior of the cabinet reveals eight Boulle inlaid adjustable shelves. The rounded corners of the cabinet continue the Boulle marquetry inlays and are adorned at the top and bottom with intricate foliate accents. The side panels simulate the same design as the central doors, and are centered with spectacular Ormolu floral medallions. The apron continues the Brass inlays between richly chased Ormolu foliate reserves in the corners, and separating the set of doors, below the Ebony top banded on the edges with scrolling designs. All original gilt and glass panes throughout.

Antique French Louis XVI Style Bookcase, or if you prefer, Antique French Ebonized Bibliotheque made from solid mahogany over 100-years ago to a very high standard. We have had our share of antique, or supposed to be Antique French mahogany Louis XVI style bookcases, however most tend to be constructed during the 1950’s. This Antique French Ebonized Bookcase is the real deal and is a genuine antique, which our inhouse Old Plank restoration department beautifully restored, with an old school ebonized finish. The French Louis XVI bookcase was completely disassembled (makes for easy ingress and egress), hand-stripped to the bare mahogany wood, restored as necessary and refinished in this deep black Napoleon III style ebonized and brass exterior.
