Black Marble Top – Late 19th Century

An elegant side cabinet crafted from precious woods and geometric marquetry, featuring a drawer in the frieze and two doors on the front.

The front is adorned with a remarkable rosewood frieze arranged in a chevron pattern, highlighted by marquetry frames and contrasting stringing.

The sides also feature finely crafted wood that showcases the richness of the grain.

The cabinet rests on four cabriole legs ending in bronze sabots.

It is topped with a molded black marble slab, adding a further touch of elegance.

The keyhole escutcheons, handles, and ornaments in gilt bronze harmoniously complete the piece.

Due to its compact size, this cabinet can serve as a side table, a small parlor sideboard, an entryway cabinet, or even a music cabinet.

Condition

Very good overall condition.

The marquetry is well-preserved with slight signs of wear consistent with its age.

The marble top is in good apparent condition.

The bronze fittings and locks are present.

Some minor, old wear does not detract from the overall aesthetic.

Period

Late 19th century, Louis XV/Transitional style.
