\nMagnificent Louis XV period window in walnut with cut sides and double body.
\nIt supports on its upper body a cornice with a pediment in the form of a hat, framing a cartouche of marquetry of cubes in perspective called the Oeben cubes.<\/p>\n

The two asymmetrical leaves of the upper body, soberly molded, frame a glass panel of imposing dimensions for this period as well as an egg-shaped glass. 
\nThe panels of the two leaves of the lower body also frame a glass panel.
\nBoth parts lock.
\nIt has two shelves.<\/p>\n

Period : Louis XV – Transition – XVIIIth century
\nDimensions : H :248 x W :118 x D :82cm<\/p>\n

This piece of furniture remains remarkable in its whole by the very great quality of the cabinet making and its cartouche in marquetry.<\/p>\n

Its marquetry with geometric patterns of very contemporary appearance are inspired by a marquetry technique particularly appreciated at the time of the Louis XVI style. <\/p>\n

The marquetry of Mr. Jean François Oeben is among the most famous of the 18th century. He specialized in more and more geometrical techniques and made it a real specificity that will definitely mark his style. <\/p>\n

He became the king’s cabinetmaker from 1761 to 1763.<\/p>\n

Despite its apparent simplicity, this technique is absolutely difficult, being composed of 3 rhombuses forming a cube in perspective in the form of a hexagon. <\/p>\n

The difficulty lies in the repetitive geometrical movement that brings out any small shift.<\/p>\n

The cube decoration attests without question, the furniture of the Louis XV or Transition period. <\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
