FAQs

French marquetry gained prominence during the 17th and 18th centuries, particularly under the reign of Louis XIV, where master craftsmen created elaborate pictorial designs using fine wood veneers.

These pieces typically feature a carcase of oak or pine, veneered with exotic and native woods such as kingwood, tulipwood, walnut, and fruitwoods, often accented with gilt-bronze or ormolu mounts and marble tops.

Authentic pieces show signs of age in the wood grain and hand-cut veneers, traditional joinery methods such as dovetailing, and the natural oxidation of the patination beneath the finish.

Pair the ornate wooden textures and cool marble surface with minimalist contemporary art and neutral walls to create a striking contrast between historical craftsmanship and modern simplicity.

Keep the furniture away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent the veneers from lifting, and clean the wood periodically with a soft cloth and specialized microcrystalline wax.
