Exquisite 19th Century French Mahogany Marquetry & Gilt Metal Mounted Bombé Vitrine

Remarkable 19th century French Mahogany Marquetry Vitrine. The bombé silhouette, Rocaille crested cornice, and intricate details make this vitrine a stunning representation of the opulence of the era.

The vitrine boasts a bombé form, characterized by its gracefully curved and swollen shape, creating a sense of movement and sophistication.

Adorning the top is a Rocaille crested cornice, adding a touch of ornate elegance to the overall design. This intricate detailing is a nod to the Rococo style that flourished during the 18th century.

The vitrine features a glazed shaped and bowed glass door that offers a captivating view of the treasures within. The carefully crafted glass door adds a layer of transparency to the piece, creating an inviting display space.

The angles of the vitrine are mounted with putti masks and acanthus scrolls in gilt metal, showcasing the craftsmanship and attention to detail that defines French furniture of this period.

The front of the vitrine is adorned with a shaped floral marquetry panel framed with an acanthus border, a testament to the artistry and precision of the marquetry work.

The vitrine stands on foliate feet, providing a solid foundation and completing the overall aesthetic with a touch of natural elegance.
