Louis XVI-style sideboard from the early 20th century. Four truncated pyramid legs support a curved front with a single door on olive hinges, and a rare purple breccia top. The cabinet is veneered in mahogany with marquetry inserts made from small, opposing squares of blond mahogany. The entire surface is enriched with finely chased and gilded bronzes. The legs feature small floral festoons, uprights with gilded bronze asparagus inserted into the tapers, cornices in the inserts, and leafy scrolls in the band below the top are also gilded bronze. At the center, a lion's head between two oak and ivy branches holds a drape in its mouth, from which hangs a myrtle branch that decorates the central medallion depicting a bacchanal with fauns.

20th Century / 1901 - 2000

Main essence: Mahogany

It is one of the most precious and sought-after woods in cabinet making. It was discovered in Central America around 1600 and began to be imported to England in the 1700s. Much appreciated for its hardness and indestructibility, it became widespread following the blocking of walnut exports from France in 1720 and the consequent elimination of English import duties on mahogany from the colonies in America and India. The most valuable version comes from Cuba, but it became very expensive. At the end of the 18th century it began to be used also in France in Louis XVI, Directory and Empire furniture, its diffusion declined starting from when Napoleon, in 1810, forbade its import. It was generally used in the manufacture of elegant furniture, due to its characteristics and beautiful grain.
