19th Rectangular Bouillotte Louis XVI Desk Table with Bronze Mounts

About the Item

This important writing table is after Jean-Henri Riesener, perhaps the most important furniture maker working in Paris during the reign of Louis XVI. The desk thus demonstrates a curious history: it is a desk in a distinctly French style, after celebrated French originals, but by an English firm working in the 19th century. The desk is supported by faceted, tapering legs, the edges mounted with gilt bronze, above gilt bronze feet. The body of the desk contains three drawers, while the top of the desk is finished with exquisite geometrical marquetry and bounded by a pierced gilt bronze gallery. The desk is set with superb gilt bronze mounts throughout, including ornate intertwining foliage adorning the sides.
