French Louis XV Marquetry Dressing Table Perruquiere, Manner of Pierre Roussel
Located in Berlin, DE
Excellent French Louis XV Marquetry Dressing Table, so-called "Perruquiere", Manner of Pierre Roussel (1723-1782)
The top of shaped outline, the front is recurved with a small kneehole, fitted with a leather covered pull out writing slide and four drawers. The sides are slightly bowed. The top divided in three sections, the outer two hingeing outwards to reveal box sections, once used for storing toilet articles or wigs (french: perruque, therefore this type of funiture is called "perruquière"), the central one lifts up on a hinge to reveal an adjustable mirror.
The dressing table is supported on square-sectioned cabriole legs, the feet with gilt-bronze sabots. Being decorated on all sides, it is possible to place the dressing table or perruquière in the center of a room.
Dressing tables were essential pieces of furniture for fashionable 18th century ladies who spent much time at their toilette preparing for an endless series of entertainments and social appearances. A series of drawers, which could be secured by lock and key, rendered such furniture appropriate for storing personal effects and, especially, private correspondence.
The well proportioned curvy shape as well as the excellent marquetry decoration of the Louis XV dressing table...

18th century, Italian Louis XV Lacquered Wood Vanity Dressing Cabinet
Located in IT
18th century, Italian Louis XV Lacquered Wood Vanity Dressing Cabinet
The vanity dressing cabinet was made in Italy in Genoa around the middle of the eighteenth century, Louis XV.
Very elegant and refined, the cabinet has a wooden structure entirely lacquered and painted with floral decorations in shades of blue.
The top opens with three flap doors: in the center the door has a mirror inside, while laterally there are two large compartments, lined with precious marbled paper.
On the front there are three drawers, one central and two side, all lined with marbled paper.
The four legs are moved and arched giving gracefulness to the overall architecture.
The manufacture of marbled paper is very old, born in Japan in the twelfth century. It first spread to Persia and Turkey, where it was mainly used for the decoration of manuscripts, then, thanks to Western merchants and their contacts with the Middle East, it spread to the whole West: at that time, in fact, the production of marbled paper intensified to become the preferred technique for lining the inside of boxes then imported into Europe. It was thanks to the trade of Arab merchants that a link between the two cultures was created. During the sixteenth century it conquered and fascinated the whole of Europe where it was defined marbled paper (carta marmorizzata in Italy, paper marbré in France) by the obvious similarity with the veins of marble.
Marbled paper is an ancient technique (it has its roots in Chinese craftsmanship of the 8th Century) as well as laborious and delicate and was used mainly in the bookbinding of ancient books...
