"Dressing Table In Various Wood Marquetry, Transition Period Louis XV / Louis XVI - XVIIIth"
Mahogany and amaranth dressing table, beautifully inlaid on all sides with successions of uninterrupted cubes, underlined by lemon tree fillets. We owe their 3D effect to the regular alternation of rosewood, rosewood and green-tinted wood. The top of this piece of furniture is composed of three flaps. The one in the middle discovers a sliding mercury mirror, making it possible to adjust the distance from its user. The two side flaps, held horizontally once opened, reveal two bare compartments and as many raspberry-coloured fabric shelves. As a belt, this bedroom furniture has a retractable pull tab with a brass button, upholstered in modern red leather with a golden frieze. We also discover a first central drawer with bronze entry, functional original lock and added key, then a second, on the right, smaller and with compartments. The left drawer is dummy. The set rests on four elegantly curved mahogany legs, with softened edges in light wood, and ending in brass shoes. This functional dressing table and its fine marquetry are an undeniable invitation to a parenthesis for oneself.
