拍品专文

Although unstamped, the sophisticated carving and elegant proportions of these marquises would point to the work of one of the most accomplished menuisiers of the Louis XVI period such as Georges Jacob (maître in 1765) or Jean-Baptiste-Claude Sené (maître in 1769). The distinctive spiral-fluted legs of these marquises are a particular leitmotif of both Jacob and Sené (for instance on a suite supplied by Sené to the Grand Cabinet of Marie-Antoinette at Saint Cloud, illustrated in P. Kjellberg, Le Mobilier Français du XVIIIe Siècle, Paris, 1989, pp. 812-3) or on a fauteuil and veilleuse by Jacob illustrated op. cit., pp. 414 and 423.
