About the Item

FURNITURE OF LEGENDS! HOWARD VERBECK 19TH CENTURY FRENCH LOUIS XVI MARBLE SIDE TABLE! DIMENSIONS: APPROX. 18" WIDE & 20" TALL Some furniture is more than just furniture. Some furnishings are an intricate part of history and stories accompany them that make them larger than life. Howard Verbeck was one of the greatest interior decorators to the celebrities in Los Angeles. Verbeck had married a noted opera singer and had connections to anyone who mattered in early LA. He was responsible for the amazingly rich "look" of Los Angeles homes and fledgling Hollywood in the roaring twenties! He was the father of "Hollywood Regency" style - which was then really just high end European furnishings of the most famous styles and periods. From Valentino to Douglas Fairbanks many silent screen stars home were furnished by Verbeck and he became extremely wealthy. Verbeck purchased one of the most famous homes in LA from a grain tycoon. On his birthday, he had the house removed from its foundation and taken to a new location. For four hours the house moved down Wilshire Boulevard in two sections on many slow moving trucks. What made it an LA legend was that he had a huge party in the house as it was moved! Even the mayor attended and the party symbolized the excess of the roaring twenties and Los Angeles high society just before the depression. This table is the only table (currently known & identified) to still have Howard Verbeck's signature nameplate affixed! Verbeck, when decorating celebrities homes would travel to Europe and bring back a small inventory of superb pieces. In these days, travel to Europe was by ship and time consuming. The Louis XVI style French table is one he had brought over for a celebrity client. It still has his plate, the manufacturer's label number and was embossed and stamped "Made in France" so it could be exported. The Louis XVI style is timeless and this table features a marble top, inlaid woodwork and brass details that identify its superior European craftsmanship. It fits with all decors and its warm hues enrich any interior. This table is in very good condition for it's century plus vintage. There is wear and age commensurate with usage, brass has aged superbly and has a great patina. The piece truly looks like it emerged from the palace of Louis XVI! A priceless piece of Los Angeles and Interior Decoration history! This stunning table will be a magnificent addition to your historic Los Angeles estate, New York penthouse or West Palm Beach mansion! TREAT YOUR DECORATOR INTERIORS TO HOWARD VERBECK STYLE!
