Antique Quality French Louis XV Style Marquetry Side Cabinet

1900 - 1920
Description

A fine antique quality French Louis XV style side cabinet beautifully crafted in kingwood and tulipwood veneers with exquisite floral marquetry and gilt-bronze (ormolu) mounts.

The shaped top edged with a decorative brass gallery is crossbanded and inlaid with delicate geometric patterns that highlight the warm tones of the veneers. Beneath are a single drawer and a curved cupboard door enclosing a shelved interior, all adorned with intricate floral marquetry panels and ornate ormolu escutcheons.

The cabinet stands gracefully on slender cabriole legs with gilt-bronze mounts and sabots typical of the fine craftsmanship of late 19th-century Parisian workshops. The hinged top lifts to reveal additional storage space, combining elegance with practicality.

This is a high-quality and decorative antique side cabinet, ideal for use in a hallway, living room, or refined bedroom setting.

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.

Secure Transit

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

The Louis XV style, predominant in 18th-century France, is characterised by curvilinear shapes, slender cabriole legs, asymmetrical Rococo elements, and decorative wood marquetry veneer.

Craftsmen typically utilised hardwood veneers such as walnut, rosewood, and kingwood over a solid timber carcass, complemented by cast brass or bronze ormolu mounts and gallery rims.

Key identification markers include hand-cut wood inlay patterns, cast metal mounts shaped precisely to the cabinet curves, dovetailed drawer joints, and swept cabriole legs with decorative sabots.

Position the cabinet as an accent piece in a contemporary setting, pairing the detailed woodwork alongside modern artwork or minimalist lighting to create a refined visual contrast.

Maintain the finish by dusting with a dry microfibre cloth and applying natural beeswax sparingly along the grain, while avoiding direct sunlight and proximity to heat sources.
