About the Item
A superb Louis XVI style gilt-bronze and black lacquer commode inspired by Jean-Henri Riesener’s celebrated model for Queen Marie-Antoinette. It features a veined red brèche Basque marble top over three frieze drawers adorned with interlaced gilt-bronze floral garlands, including a central drawer with the queen’s “MA” monogram. The door showcases a raised gilt Japanese lacquer panel of birds among flowering branches, framed by exuberant gilt-bronze swags, with a shelved interior. Gilt-bronze volutes accent the corners, and the concave sides echo the lacquer decoration; the piece stands on acanthus-cast feet.
Made circa 1880, this commode is a refined 19th-century homage to Riesener’s royal masterpiece created for Marie-Antoinette’s Grand Cabinet Intérieur at Versailles. Riesener’s original incorporated 17th-century Japanese lacquer panels and exceptionally fine gilt-bronze mounts, later admired and replicated after their appearance in the famed Hamilton Palace Sale. The original pieces now reside in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. This example reflects the opulence and craftsmanship that made the model one of the most celebrated works of French royal furniture.
