19th Century French Louis XIV Régence Trelliswork Marquetry Commode or Sauteuse

About the Item

19th Century French Louis XIV Régence Trelliswork marquetry commode or sauteuse Standing on four cabriole legs the commode or so-called sauteuse holds two frieze drawers of bowfront form with Régence or Baroque style movable handles and functional keyholes. Between the two front legs with gilt-bronze Régence style sabots a central shaped apron with Régence style gilt-bronze decoration. The front and both sides as well as the gilt-bronze banded top of the commode are decorated with elaborate trelliswork marquetry framed at the corners with herringbone pattern marquetry. The simple but effective design of the trellis work appears almost modern and the contrast between the wood and the gilt bronze mounts leads to an elegant display. Very attractive Louis XIV Régence style commode of elegant proportions also suitable for smaller places.

  • Early 18th Century French Louis XIV Régence Trellis Marquetry Armoire Wardrobe
    By Etienne Doirat
    Located in Berlin, DE
    Early 18th Century French Louis XIV / Régence Marquetry Armoire or Wardrobe The rectangular Louis XIV Régence armoire or wardrobe with rounded corners standing on a short base with bracket feet and curved apron with gilt-bronze Apollo head mount; the two doors can be opened by a Pasquil lock to reveal the inside with four removable shelves. The doors decorated with gilt-bronze framed rectangular cartouches displaying elaborate trellis pattern marquetry and gilt-bronze paterea mounts at the corners; the inner sides of the doors each with a large marqueted rhomb motif; the sides of the armoire with quatre-foil mirrored marquetry. Rich gilt-bronze banding, the upper corners and the bracket feet at the front with Louis XIV style gilt- bronze foliage appliques. Although this exceptional Louis XIV / Régence armoire or wardrobe does not bear a stamp (stamping furniture only became commonplace after 1745), its shape, its quality of manufacture and its luxurious yet well-balanced use of Louis XIV/Régence gilt-bronze mounts on an elaborate geometrical marquetry all lead to the workshop of the important cabinet maker Etienne Doirat (1675-1732). Étienne Doirat came from a family of cabinet makers that had been established in Paris from the beginning of the 1600s. Doirat only began to stamp his furniture at the end of his career, and accordingly only few pieces bear his stamp and can serve as comparison pieces for newly discovered pieces of furniture. He constructed various furniture forms, including commodes, armoires, corner cupboards, and tables, often veneered with simple marquetry in exotic woods. Although he did not do the casting, chasing and gilding, Doirat tried to keep exclusive control over the models for his bronze furniture mounts...
