About the Item
Napoleon III period dressing table, attributed to Diehl
French, circa 1870
Measures: Height 78cm, width 50cm, depth 38cm
This magnificent dressing table is crafted from dark wood mounted with silvered bronze. The table is raised on four cabriole legs, each leg terminating in a silvered bronze foot and set to the shoulder with a silvered bronze foliate mount. The apron of the table contains a large drawer, while the top of the table is hinged, opening to reveal a mirror and an addition compartment. The table is set throughout with finely formed silvered bronze mounts. Based on the style of the piece and the choice of materials, it can be attributed to Charles-Guillaume Diehl, a leading producer during the reign of Napoleon III.

French, circa 1920
Measures: Height 75cm, width 56cm, depth 46cm
Featuring gilt metal mounts, a hinged top opening with a mirror and a single drawer, this charming piece is an ornate, very fine, delightful diminutive piece, made in France in the early 20th century.
