Made in France (probably South of France) circa 1860-80 in the Louis XV Style.
It is made of the MOST WONDERFUL burl walnut with GORGEOUS natural patina !
It sits on 4 cabriolet legs with a curved base with curved kneehole.
It has 5 drawer fronts each with it’s original Louis XV style ormolu handles/pulls. The top 3 drawers are faux drawers and the bottom 2 are small useable drawers.
The top of the poudreuse has a curved or serpentine edge and the central section lifts upwards on hinges with side levers, to reveal the original beveled mirror and hand painted and hand stenciled interior of a Shepherd Girl in a country/rural setting.
The 2 side sections lift sideways on hinges, again to reveal the original hand painted and hand stenciled interior storage sections with floral patterns.
It even has it’s original working key and central lock.
In very good original condition. Some cracks on the top of the central lid from age but in our opinion these only add to the beauty and authenticity of the piece. Some minor loss of gilt stencil on interior of central section but not significant.
THIS IS THE NICEST POUDREUSE WE HAVE SEEN !
Provenance: From a Private Dallas Collection.
Condition: Very good original condition. See main description.
Dimensions: Closed: 30.75″ Tall, 34″ Wide and 17.25″ Deep.
