Catalogue Note
Pierre Flechy, ébéniste reçu maître en 1756.
Le riche décor de fleurs en bois clair associées aux branchages presque noirs sur un fond d'amarante ainsi que les motifs d'oiseaux ou de cornets sont caractéristiques du travail Pierre Fléchy. Ces marqueteries ne sont pas sans rappeler l'oeuvre de Jean-Pierre Latz, ébéniste privilégié du Roi avant 1741. Les encadrements de bois teinté évoquant les cartouches de bronze se retrouvent également sur plusieurs commodes de la main de Pierre Fléchy.
