  • 'James Bond' Boulle Marquetry Writing Desk in the Louis XIV Manner
    By Toms & Luscombe
    Located in London, GB
    A bureau plat in the Louis XIV manner By Toms and Luscombe shown at the 1862 International Exhibition, London Featured in the 1962 classic James Bond film "Dr. No" starring Sean Connery Constructed in the manner of Andre-Charles Boulle, using complex arabesque premiere-partie inlays on an ebony ground: the whole richly dressed with bronze doré mounts; of serpentine form, rising from strongly modelled swept cabriole legs dressed with foliate entwined chutes, capped with cartouches and terminating in scrolled sabots, the apron of bombe form enclosing the kneehole, housing three lockable drawers flanked by ormolu clasps, and three similarly dressed faux drawers to the obverse, having complex loop handles; the platform having a tooled Morocco leather writing surface, with the complex arabesques in the reserve, and having an outer foliate cast ormolu guard edge. The bureau plat has a rich history, exhibited and praised at the 1862 International Exhibition, but also featured in the iconic 1962 James Bond film Dr No starring Sean Connery. Shown on set in the quarters of Dr Julius No on Crab Key alongside numerous famous masterpieces such as Francisco Goya's Portrait of the Duke of Wellington, the décor used in this first James Bond film has entered popular culture, and symbolises the opulence, luxury, and glamour of 1960s cold war era spy films. Toms and Luscombe Successors to, and working from the same premises as Town and Emanuel, which they took over between 1840 and 1851, they traded from the same address at 103 New Bond St. and also specialised in fine quality Boulle or "Buhl" marquetry as it was often referred to in England. They appear in the 1851 census. (Inlay, Marquetry and Buhl Workers in England c. 1660-1850, Pat Kirkham, The Burlington Magazine, Vol. 122, No. 927 {Jun., 1980}, pp. 415-416 and 419). They exhibited at the Great Exhibition of the same year and are recorded as showing 'A pair pedestals...
