About the Item

This exquisite antique ladies vanity is crafted in the manner of the celebrated French ébéniste François Linke, renowned for his luxurious 19th-century furniture. A masterpiece of design and craftsmanship, the vanity features a richly figured rosewood case embellished with hand-painted porcelain plaques, each framed in gilt bronze and decorated with delicate floral motifs and romantic scenes. The porcelain panels are set against a background of brilliant turquoise, enhancing their elegance and decorative appeal. The vanity is further adorned with finely cast gilt bronze mounts and sculptural figures, including winged caryatids and intricate scrollwork that highlight the serpentine form and cabriole legs. The mirrored back with a shaped crest, flanked by porcelain plaques, provides both function and grandeur, while the tiered shelving and writing surface offer practical use. A porcelain medallion set into the stretcher base adds yet another touch of refinement. Perfect for placement in a dressing room, boudoir, or collector’s gallery, this piece embodies the opulence of Belle Époque Paris. A true statement of artistry, this Linke style porcelain and bronze mounted vanity is a rare find for collectors, interior designers, and connoisseurs of the finest French antiques.
