Antique French Gilt Bronze-Mounted Mahogany Side Table
About the Item
The beautiful neoclassical style designs of Jean-Henri Riesener (1735-1806), perhaps the most celebrated cabinetmaker of all time, are the inspiration for this wonderful antique side table. In particular, the ormolu mounts which adorn the piece - showing festoons, laurel garlands and cherubs - take after the 18th century master.
The table is topped with veined red marble which sits above gilt bronze friezes on the front and sides of the table. The frieze at the front is mounted with a central scene showing two young fauns (a mythological half-man, half-goat creature) and a cherub, here representing the Greek god Bacchus, the god of wine, pleasure and dancing. The front also opens as a drawer. The table is supported by four straight, tapering, fluted legs on gilt bronze toupie feet.

Antique French Louis XVI Bronze Mounted Writing Table
By François Linke, Claude Michel Clodion, Jean-Henri Riesener
Located in Forney, TX
A striking French antique Louis XVI style gilt bronze mounted writing table made after the model by cabinetmaker to King Louis XVI and Marie Antoinetteean, important ébéniste Jean-Henri Riesener (German/French, 1734-1806) and later reproduced by Francois Linke (French, 1855-1946). Signed bronze mounts, Marco.
Born in France in the early 19th century, possibly during the late 18th century Louis XVI period, most likely Parisian work, exquisitely hand-crafted in several woods of contrasting colors including walnut and mahogany to create fine wooden inlays and parquetry detailing. The original partially inset marble top with dramatic veining sits above a flat sided break-fronted front and back adorned with fine bas-relief bronze plaques cast adorned with putti cherubs in the manner of the French sculptor Clodion (Claude Michel, 1738-1814).
The centered front bronze panel disguises a single frieze drawer with dovetail joinery and original key, flanked by gilded bronze foliate mounted rounded corners, a simulated panel drawer to the reverse, embellished on all four sides by intricate finely chiseled, chased and sculpted scrolling laurel ribbon and garland swag ormolu mounts, patinated brass running ornamentation, rising elegantly on four bronze dore ring mounted straight tapering fluted legs, terminating in patinated bronze toupie feet sabots. Signed / marks; the bronzes are stamped / incised Marco.
