Transition period chest of drawers stamped de Héricourt - Lot 255
Transition period chest of drawers stamped de Héricourt in satin-finish veneer with leaf-inlaid amaranth frame. It opens to two drawers without rails, with rounded uprights and cambered legs. Gilt bronze ornamentation on the ribbon-knot escutcheons, pastille pull handles, lion-mask falls and claw feet. Pink and white breche marble top. Stamped Hericourt and hallmarked J.M.E. H. 86 cm - W. 113.5 cm - D. 54.6 cm (minor maintenance restorations) Nicolas Hericourt (1729-1790) obtained a patent of privilege that allowed him to stamp like the masters; this stamp is unusual. His business, obtained from his aunt, was called Cabinet Dauphin, cited as a supplier to the Crown's furniture repository as early as 1763. His clients included the Prince de Condé, the Princess of Monaco, the Duc de Lauzun, de Sully and Prince Camille de Rohan. He delivered furniture to Louveciennes for Madame Du Barry.
