Condition
The illustration of the catalogue is accurate. Good overall condition despite the inevitable scratches and marks due to age and use.
A few minor chips along the frieze with a bigger one at the rear of the right hand side. The frieze was probably originally decorated with a gilt-bronze frieze.
The central leg is fiited with a gilt bronze capped foot.
Higly decorative.

拍品資料及來源
Notre écritoire est tout à fait représentative du goût du XVIIIe siècle pour les porcelaines chinoises montées de bronze doré par des marchands merciers. Ce simple décor turquoise était particulièrement apprécié et figurait dans d’importantes collections comme celle de Marie-Antoinette. Une de ses fontaines à parfum en porcelaine de Chine à fond turquoise est conservée au Louvre (inv. N 1500, OA 7).
