Pair of Regency-style display cabinet

About the Item

This beautiful pair of display cabinets is part of a rare and important Regency-style dining room set in molded, carved oak with curved sides. It served as a silver cabinet. This set is for sale on our website and also includes: - a pair of sideboards - a table (with four raw wood extensions) - a suite of nine chairs (available soon) - a pair of armchairs (available soon) The fine quality of the sculpture comes from the Château de la Haute Forêt in Bréal sous Montfort, and was part of Edouard Nignon's collection. The Château, built in 1857 in a half-Gothic, half-Renaissance style, is listed as a Historic Monument, with its extremely well-preserved interior décor: floors, panelling, ceilings and fireplaces. Edouard Nignon, who commissioned our dining room set in 1919, lived in the Château until his death in 1934. Edouard Nignon was a Grand Chef of French cuisine with a European reputation and experience. He served Tsar Nicholas II and Austrian Emperor Francis Joseph. From humble beginnings, his talent enabled him to climb the culinary ladder and seduce the greatest chefs of his time. His cookery book, Éloges de la cuisine française, published in 1933, was a great publishing success, and is still sought-after by apprentice cooks today.
