Antique French Marble Top Painted Cabinet

1900 - 1920
Description

A stunning antique French marble top painted cabinet. This was made in France, it dates from around the 1920-30’s.

It is of superb quality, this is a useful size and has a gorgeous marble top with a bow fronted edge. The cabinet is predominantly mahogany, and has absolutely beautiful painted designs on the front doors and side panels. There are high quality gilt bronze ormolu mounts all over.

We have had this revived and re-polished, the condition is excellent for its age, with minimal wear. The marble top lifts off for ease of transport. There is just one extremely shallow graze to the top edge of the marble, barely noticeable at all in real life, and it is shown in the images.

Width – 30 inches , 76 cm

Depth – 15 inches , 38 cm

Height – 30.5 inches , 77 cm

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A Vernis Martin painted cabinet originates from 18th-century France, featuring lacquered or painted romantic and pastoral scenes inspired by artists like Watteau and Boucher, often executed on curved or demilune furniture forms.

These cabinets traditionally combine wood veneers such as kingwood or rosewood with hand-painted lacquered panels, gilt-bronze ormolu mounts, and a contoured marble top.

Authentic examples feature hand-chased gilt-bronze mounts displaying natural oxidation, hand-painted artwork with fine craquelure, solid timber interior framing, and marble tops shaped to fit the specific contours of the carcass.

Position the cabinet as an accent piece in an entryway, dining room, or drawing room, keeping surrounding wall decor simple to allow the detailed painted panels and marble surface to serve as the focal point.

Dust the wooden framework and painted surfaces with a dry, soft microfiber cloth, avoid abrasive liquid cleaners on the ormolu and paint, and protect the marble top from acidic substances using protective pads.
