Napoleon III ~ Table Ambulante ~ 19e eeuw ~ Bois Noirci - Side table - Wood

A beautiful and elegant center or side table in the Napoleon III style, with a drawer, decorated with inlaid copper fillets, in good restored condition. The tabletop is framed by a richly decorated gilded edge. The piece rests on gracefully fluted legs with a cross-brace, each finished with gilded bronze mountings at the top, and a pinnacle in the middle of the tabletop. Includes a key for the fully functioning lock in the smoothly operating drawer. The brass lock with the emblem of crossed keys is marked with V.F. Paris, referring to the renowned house Vachette Frères. (see last photo) This company, founded in 1864 in Troyes by brothers Louis and Émile Vachette, was known under the name Vachette Frères (V.F.). Initially the company focused on closures for furniture and opened a branch in Paris to directly serve the cabinetmakers of Faubourg Saint-Antoine, one of the main centers of Parisian cabinetry.
