EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite Meuble de Salon 9, circa 1860, is a fine example of the opulence and elegance of the Louis XIV style. The two-door cupboard, also known as a boule cabinet, is adorned with intricate carvings and a rich, dark finish, reflecting the grandeur of the French monarchy during the late 17th century. The accompanying etagere, a tiered shelf unit, adds an additional element of storage and visual interest to the piece. The Meuble de Salon was a staple of the French aristocracy's living quarters, serving both as a functional storage solution and a decorative statement. The boule finish, characterized by its rounded, ball-like knobs, adds a tactile and inviting quality to the furniture. The Louis XIV style, named after King Louis XIV, is renowned for its ornate and grandiose designs, which were intended to reflect the wealth and power of the monarchy. This particular Meuble de Salon 9, with its intricate carvings and elegant design, would have been a prized possession of a wealthy French family during the late 19th century. The accompanying etagere, with its delicate columns and ornate detailing, would have provided additional storage for decorative objects, books, or other treasured items. Today, this beautiful piece of furniture serves as a reminder of the rich history and cultural significance of the Louis XIV style, which continues to inspire designers and collectors alike. The intricate carvings and opulent finish of this Meuble de Salon 9, along with its accompanying etagere, make it a true masterpiece of French furniture design.
