This chest opens with 12 drawers, 4 large central opening traditionally in the middle, and 8 small opening on the corners. This furniture is walnut, and marquetry decorated with animated scenes, represented by characters, animals and landscapes. The marquetry is very rich and very present on the facade and angles. The sides are in walnut and burl walnut, decorated with rich blackened wood moldings. The drawers are also surrounded by blackened wood trimmed rods. The large drawers with the marquetry of animated scenes are in burr walnut, and light wood decorated with pyrography. We find the same wood species with a different composition on the corner drawers. The tray is also in walnut with a light inlaid wooden net. The veneer is very thick. This dresser is in good condition, with its natural wear of time. There are some old restorations. The back of this chest of drawers, drawers and bottoms are original. The bronze handles of the drawers are not original. On the corner drawers, we have two types of drawer knobs. The locks are not original too. This dresser is exceptional and rare, with its 12 drawers and cabinetwork complex, and its type of marquetry decorated with characters and animals. This work was most certainly done for an order. https://www.anticswiss.com/en/fine-art-antiques/italian-chest-of-drawers-12-drawers-marquetry-late-sevente-14520 1 / 2 anticSwiss 07/10/2021 11:36:49 http://www.anticswiss.com Gallery 2 / 2 Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org) Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org).

Traditional Japanese archery is called Kyudo, literally The Way of the Bow, and is regarded in Japan as one of the purest of all the martial Ways. In times past, the Japanese bow, or yumi, was an effective hunting tool and weapon of war but it was also used in court games and rituals, religious ceremonies, and contests of skill.

By replicating forms, furniture makers intended for their clientele and contemporaries to read these objects in relation to the work of their predecessor, Boulle.

The Technique Marquetry
The Technique of Marquetry Patrick Edwards (Reprinted from Woodwork Magazine, Issue Number 20, March/April 1993) When I explain to customers that I make marquetry, they either ask: “What is that?” or they exclaim: “Oh, you mean inlay!” Although excellent examples of marquetry can be found in many muse- ums and antique shops, it’s still a poorly understood technique. Developed during the Renaissance, the technique was made famous by Andre- Charles Boulle (1642-1732), who incor- porated into his designs such exotic ma- Bureau Plat with Boulle Marquetry terials as brass, pewter, horn, ivory, and Ebony, Turtoise Shell, Engraved Brass tortoise-shell, as well as hardwoods. Marquetry represents one of the most advanced forms of furniture decoration. It flourished in France in the 18th century and experienced a revival a hundred years later in England. In simple terms, marquetry and its cousin parquetry are complete surface cover- ings of decorative patterns assembled from veneer. Parquetry consists mainly of straight lines cut with a knife or veneer saw; marquetry is made up of more curved and naturalistic shapes cut with a jeweler’s saw. Inlay consists of pieces let into a solid-wood background, and is used as a decorative accent in the primary wood. The advantage of marquetry is that the cabinet itself can be made of a common wood like oak, beech, or pine, and then be completely covered with a surface decoration assembled from more exotic and rare woods. Producing a marquetry picture involves much of the patience and skill required to assemble a jigsaw puzzle. The dif- ference is that the marquetry requires making the pieces first.

Marquetry and Parquetry Delight Thee
BRISBANE Marquetry and Parquetry Delight Thee Evidence dates veneering to 2000 BC in the Greek, Roman and Egyptian empires. The modern history of veneering in England, however, originated in continental Europe. Two key events brought veneered furniture into dominance in England during the 1660s. The first was the return of Charles II from exile, because once he returned he introduced new high standards of furniture design and craftsmanship from both Holland and France.
