Height: 89 cm. Width: 140 cm. Depth: 64 cm. Paris, c. 1765. Two-bay, slightly cambered oak body with rich rosewood, rosewood and fruitwood marquetry. Lush fittings in fire-gilded bronze. The feet, slanted on all sides, run burr-like into the corners, tapering sabre-shaped at the bottom. The front panel, veneered in a light effect with rosewood laid in a V-shape, is framed by rosewood veneer. In the light central field, which extends across the two drawers, inlaid in delicate wood tones are branches of flowers, bouquets of roses, larger and smaller leaves. The leaf shapes are tinted green, the blossoms are graduated in delicate colours up to violet-red. The centre is accentuated by a ribbonwork in rosewood veneer inlaid in a generous sweep, enclosing a slightly kidney-shaped centre panel border, cleverly running through the sides below the gilded handle pulls. Pull handles and key fittings brown underlay, as is the application on the center frame, worked in extremely elegant C and S arches with inlaid flowers. On the sides of the chest of drawers also V-shaped laying of the bright picture field, on each a bouquet of flowers. Finishing marble plate in extremely rare brick red, yellow and grey speckling. Finely profiled and rounded at the edges. Frame stamped "DAUTRICHE" for Jacques van Oostenryk (master from 1765, died 1778). Old locks and keys. Rest, erg. Literature: Cf.
