Inlaid corner with floral decoration, birds and lansquenets

Corner cabinet inlaid with light wood on a mahogany background. It presents a luxuriant decoration of falling foliage around the perimeter of the door, in the center of which a reserve delimited by a frame of light wooden nets, the top of which ends in an ogive, simulates an arch, in which stands a armed man wearing his helm, adorned with his shield, a sword and a dagger. The whole is topped with a putto holding two cornucopias pouring out their lots of flowers.
The uprights, on either side of the door, are slightly rounded and inlaid with reserves, one enclosing a lansquenet, and the others flowers and butterflies.
The top is also finely crafted: a bouquet made up of varied flowers adorns a gadrooned vase with baroque decor placed on a base with leafy scrolls, baby birds and butterflies flutter in this vegetal atmosphere. The cabinetmaker pushed the detail far by also adding a flower decoration to the base and confirms a perfectly balanced design for this pretty corner piece of furniture. The origin of this one is in the Netherlands, it dates from the end of the 18th century.

The Dutch cabinetmakers of the 17th and 18th centuries specialized in flower marquetry. From this school of masters with undisputed know-how, some came to settle in Paris, including one of the best known was Pierre Gole (1620-1684) cabinetmaker to King Louis XIV.
