Its design harmoniously blends traditional European craftsmanship with Asian influences, making it a captivating piece of furniture history.

The renowned company of Beurdeley was one of the most prestigious furniture makers of the 19th Century. The business was founded in 1818 by Jean Beurdeley (1772-1853), who established the firm’s first workshop in Paris. After Jean’s death, his son Louis-Auguste-Alfred (1808-1882) took over the business, channelling his energies into producing furniture inspired by the Louis XVI and Louis XVIII styles. Louis-Auguste-Alfred quickly established himself as one of the most skilled cabinet makers (ébenistes) of the 19th Century, receiving medals at both the 1855 and the 1867 Expositions Universelles in Paris. This success won Louis-Auguste-Albert a host of extremely important clients, including the French Emperor Napoleon III and his wife Empress Eugénie.

FAQs

A meuble dappui is a low, waist-high French side cabinet designed to stand against a wall, popularised in the 18th century and reproduced during the 19th century. Characteristics include classical proportions, fluted columns or pilasters, gilt-bronze mounts, and decorative wood veneers often incorporating lacquer panels or marquetry.

These pieces were constructed using oak or beech frames veneered with decorative timber species such as kingwood, rosewood, or satinwood. They featured imported East Asian lacquer panels or European lacquer imitations, fitted stone or marble tops, and cast, chased gilt-bronze mounts.

authentic period cabinets display hand-chased gilt-bronze mounts, solid oak drawer linings, hand-cut dovetail joinery, and marble tops shaped precisely to the carcass profile. Late 19th-century Parisian cabinetmakers frequently stamped their signatures or foundry marks on the wooden frame or reverse of the bronze mounts.

Position the cabinet against a neutral wall to emphasize the dark lacquer and gilded detail. Pair it with minimalist contemporary art mounted above the marble top or place simple structural ceramic vessels on top to balance the ornate decorative elements.

Dust surfaces using a soft microfibre cloth, avoiding wax or liquid polishes on lacquer sections. Clean marble tops using a damp cloth with neutral soap, avoiding acidic solutions, and position the cabinet away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent veneer movement.
