A fine pair of walnut bedside cabinets in the manner of Louis Majorelle

Price: £1650.00

Description: The quality of design and manufacture, of this pair of marble-topped French walnut bedside cabinets, is unmistakable. Their flowing naturalistic Art Nouveau style particularly appeals. The use of gilt metal mounts in the form of seed pods cleverly interspersed within the delicate carved wooden foliate decoration lifts them above many other bedside cabinets from this period. Our mention of Louis Majorelle is just a little nod to the great designer, as his influence is very apparent - the numbers and letters clearly seen on side of the right-hand drawer are somewhat of a mystery, possibly a stamp indicating their ownership. The original marble tops, with their patchwork of veins and the myriad of delicate colours that crisscross them, have been restored, rather than replaced because they were originally chosen with great care and consideration. The draw and door handles, which are all original, are also very much in keeping with the period and the overall feel of the cabinets. The marble linings to the cupboard interiors are in good condition. The cabinets have been professionally restored - their warm attractive surface colour has been sensitively retained. A lovely pair of bedside cabinets that will continue to give pleasure for many years to come. Measurements - 105cm high x 38 cm wide x 32 cm deep
