From the medieval period to the seventeenth century, prosperous households used short, tiered cupboards or sideboards of this kind for the display of silver, ceramics, brass, or pewter. The name comes from the French word for courtómeaning smallóand was likely used to distinguish this kind of object from larger cupboards used to store linens and other household goods.Most court cupboards used principles of classical architectureóparticularly columnsóto organize the tiers. This one is more unusual with its additional play of ornament and polygonal base and shelves that break forward with several drawers hidden in the moldings..

It is believed that the cabinetmaker Jean Deforge, member of a family of Parisian ébénistes by that name, was responsible for this group and for this particular commode veneered with red Chinese lacquer as well. Jean Deforge was connected with a circle of important craftsmen in Paris: he was related through his marriage with Françoise Pottier (or Pothier) to the cabinetmaker and furniture dealer Albert Pottier, while his younger sister married Guillaume Martin, one of the Martin brothers famous for their imitation lacquer usually called vernis Martin. The two drawers of this commode are sans traverse (meaning without a shelf between them). Although gilt bronze beautifully frames the panels of red lacquer on the front and sides, protects the corners and feet, there are no handles on the drawer fronts whiMetamorphic library table-steps, Thomas Sheraton, English, 1751 - 1806, Mahogany, brass, felt, A four-legged rectangular table made in mahogany with brass handles.

Based on the carved marble figures of the Erechtheum on the Acropolis in Athens, the caryatids were cast in lead and treated with a gilded surface. They may have been made in a mold taken from a French bronze lighting device of a type similar in quality to the imported bronze clocks that Lannuier is known to have sold in his store.

As examples of the classical hardwood furniture tradition, the best chests were fashioned from precious materials utilizing refined mortise and tenon joinery. Exemplary examples display the same clean lines, elegant properties, and beautifully waxed wood surfaces encountered in other traditional furniture forms.Console table ca. 1755-60 German, Bayreuth According to Heinrich Kreisel, a distinguished scholar of German furniture, this table and its companion piece, today in the Bayerisches Nationalmuseum in Munich,1 came from one of the princely castles in Bayreuth. Kreisel based his opinion mainly on the mark "BB" impressed underneath the stretcher of both tables. These he interpreted as an abbreviation of "Brandenburg-Bayreuth," signifying the dynasty of margraves established in Bayreuth during the eighteenth century. Kreisel dated the tables to about 1755-602 and attributed their design to Johann Schnegg (1724-1784), a Tyrolian carver working at the court in Bayreuth in the 1750s, together with Georg Dorsch and several other masters and journeymen, all under the supervision of Johann Georg Schleunig (b. ca. 1715), who was in Bayreuth in 1741 and moved to Berlin in 1764.
