Table-Tricorer. Ebène, holly, rosewood, around 1785. Paris, Carnavalet museum. This table is decorated with a diamond marquetry with ebony nets alternating with the holly. It is found both on the tray and on the crotch tablet. These colored essences (it is difficult to distinguish holly natural and green holler) come to create a subtle effect of relief in trompe l'oeil, especially on the outer face of the feet, at the level of the connection of the tablet, where the pattern ring is underlined by a fine play of shadows. This knitting table is like the furniture that is always neat and with the fine marquetry which make the reputation of R.V.L.C. It was only in the 19th century that this type of table was described as "knitters". This type of furniture was also used to put a work as to empty your pockets or take a snack. It could take an infinite variety of shapes (circular, oval or rectangular) or have several crotch tablets.

The suite was used in her family's residence at Madison Avenue and Sixty-Eighth Street, designed by Richard Morris Hunt (1827-1895) and built between 1881 and 1884. When, in 1884, Elizabeth married Harold Godwin (grandson of the poet and editor William Cullen Bryant), she brought the bedroom suite with her to "Cedarmere," Godwin's family home on Long Island, where it remained until 1984. Although the suite was made of American woods, probably in New York, the delicate and highly skilled carving of the Renaissance-style motifs suggests the work of a foreign-born craftsman. In contrast to the taste for flat surface decoration that dominated the 1870s, richly carved furniture such as this became fashionable about 1880.. Bedstead fromTable, oval, glued with different types of wood, decorated on conical legs with three triangles including a trim. Leaf with central oval motif with musical instruments.

This motif also applied all around on the leaf edge. At the front is a drawer with enamel plaques and copper tractors.ChestLowboy. Dated: 1940.

(110.49 x 119.38 x 59.06 cm), Bird's eye and tiger maple, pine, tulip, United States, 19th century, Chests of drawers with bowed fronts flanked by caryatid figures or columns, such as this one, are often attributed to the Philadelphia area, where a significant number are known to have been owned and made. The form reflects a strong influence from the French Empire, or Neoclassical style. This example differs from most in that it is made of maple with rosewood details, more commonly found on Biedermeier style furniture made at this time in and around Germany. Another unusal element of this chest is the survival of the painted decoration on its columns, sides, and drawer fronts, as well as its original rosewood drawer knobs.Work Table, 1800-1825. America, Massachusetts, Boston, 19th century. Maple, brass hardware; overall: 69.9 x 51.5 x 40 cm (27 1/2 x 20 1/4 x 15 3/4 in.). Needlework typically occupied several hours of a well-to-do woman's day. Worktables are compact, lightweight, and therefore portable. Casters permitted one to move the table around a room and to reposition it easily for sewing or writing. The top drawer of this example was designed to hold writing equipment and contains a writing tablet that could be placed at a convenient slant. The second drawer is divided into compartment for sewing equipment. Needlework was stored in a bag below, accessible by pulling its frame out of one of the table's shorter sides.Octagonal table.

Date: 1764.This commode was supplied to the sixth Earl of Coventry for a bedroom at Croome Court, Worcestershire, in 1764. The bill, dated July 20, 1764, gives the price of the commode as fifty-five pounds and specifies that iut was intended for storing clothing. Trained in Paris, Langlois was a leading cabinetmaker in London in the 1750s and 1760s. He specialized in commodes in the French manner, decorated with floral marquetry and gilt-bronze mounts. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.Secretary Cabinet 1770-1780 Neuwied. David Roentgen was a German craftsman and entrepreneur who made furniture for some of the grandest patrons in Europe, including Catherine the Great of Russia, Frederick the Great of Prussia, and Marie Antoinette of France. A brilliant artist in marquetry, Roentgen employed twenty varieties of wood in this desk, including American black walnut, which European craftsmen first began using at just this time.The deskís form is inspired by a design for a desk and bookcase in the English furniture maker Thomas Chippendaleís book The Gentleman and Cabinet Makers Director, published in 1754. Roentgen adapted Chippendaleís design, changing the top to a broken scrolled pediment more in keeping with the German Rococo style. The marquetry designs conjure exotic figures standing on what look like dilapidated stage sets. The depiction of these half-ruined structures became occasions for marquetry cutters to display their virtuosity. Details of birds and trees add Venetian furniture suit tableDesk. Dated: 1936.

Dimensions: 32 1/4 x 28 1/4 x 16 3/4 in. (81.9 x 71.8 x 42.5cm). Maker: Roger Vandercruse, called Lacroix (French, 1727-1799). Date: ca. 1755-60.This small two-drawer sommode, made about 1755-60, appears to be an early work of Roger Vandercruse Lacroix. The two drawers are treated as a single decorative unit with continuous floral marquetry of endcut kingwood framed by scrolled and foliated mounts. Few pieces of furniture by Lacroix in the Louis XV style are known, and the present example belongs to no established group of his furniture. The mounts were used in varing combinations on commodes by a number of contemporary cabinetmakers--e.g., Charles Chevallier le jeune (maître before 1738-1771), Pierre Macret (1727-1796), Nicolas Petit (1732-1791), Adrien Faizelot Delorme (maître 1748, retired 1783), and Matthieu Criaerd (1689-1776)--and were probably commercially available in Paris in the 1750s.Bill Rieder, 1984. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, Table.Cupboard 1670-1700 American Said to have been owned by Governor Robert Treat (ca. 1622-1710) of Milford, this cupboard represents the school of joinery that produced the most sophisticated case pieces in seventeenthcentury Connecticut. It has a prominent paneled door and sides with central cruciform and is decorated with applied bosses and half spindles. The applied decoration was made of several different woods, which originally gave the piece a livelier, varicolored surface.. Cupboard 2972Display cabinet (Vitrine). unknown, creatorCard table. unknown, contractorConsole table 1735-40 French Supported on one or two legs, console tables need to be attached to the wall for stability and are considered to be part of the interior decoration of a room. They were made by a special group of joiners, menuisiers en btiments (litt. building carpenters) responsible for the fixed elements in the interior such as paneling, pier glasses and console tables. Unlike other members of the guild, these craftsmen were not required to stamp their output and for that reason it is rarely known who created such works. The serpentine outline of the tables apron incorporates an openwork cartouche with a heart-shaped boss in the center surrounded by an asymmetrical rocaille frame and flanked by scrolling acanthus leaves and floral garlands. The doubly curved legs are decorated with floral trails and connected at the feet by an upward curving stretcher embellished in the center with an openwork asymmetrical cartouche of rocaille forms, scrolling acanthus leaves and floraEinar Heiberg, Desk, c 1938 DeskCardtable.

Imported into the United States as early as the 1860s, East Asian bamboo furniture inspired the manufacture of Western forms such as this faux-bamboo desk and matching chair (2003.11), which clearly reference Chinese and Japanese materials, motifs, and styles. Bamboo wares reached the height of their popularity after the 1876 Philadelphia Centennial Exposition, where Japanís display of bamboo furniture garnered much public attention. As the Aesthetic movement intensified the demand for Asian-inspired decorative arts and interiors, American manufacturers began using local materials to produce faux-bamboo furniture in an attempt to compete with foreign imports. Firms such as R. J. Horner and Company advertised suites of faux-bamboo furniture such as this one as most appropriate for the dining rooms and bedrooms of country houses..
