About the Item

This exceptional Napoleon III palace cabinet, created in France during the 19th century, is a remarkable example of the luxurious craftsmanship and artistic refinement associated with the Second Empire period. Constructed from ebonized wood, it displays a deep, polished finish that contrasts beautifully with its elaborate decoration. The cabinet is richly ornamented with hard stone inlays, including a finely detailed central motif of a vase overflowing with a floral arrangement, symbolizing abundance and elegance. Adding further grandeur are the intricately worked gilded bronze applications, featuring expressive masks, classical male figures, and elaborate plant motifs, all executed with exquisite precision. The overall design reflects both classical inspiration and the opulent taste of the era. Dimensions: 170 x 124 x 62 cm (67 x 49 x 24 inches).
