Voici une table de style Louis XVI, qui doit probablement être un travail du début du XXe siècle. Probablement réalisée au Faubourg Saint Antoine, ou bien à l’école Boulle. J’ai déjà vu des meubles d’apprentissage de cette qualité ayant été fabriqué par des élèves lors de leur apprentissage.
Its frame is made of oak while the veneer is rosewood and mahogany with a black fillet.
For the restoration, there was nothing too serious apart from a lack of rosewood in the marquetry à la reine and the detachment of the backing plate.
So I glued the plywood back on with a penetrating adhesive, then replaced the missing rosewood and mahogany, all using a hot-glue technique. I disassembled and re-glued the four legs, which were joined with dowels. Then, I lightly cleaned the surface with an alcohol-based gel, lightly sanded it with 400-grit sandpaper, and finally re-varnished everything with clear shellac.
Magnificent restoration work
THANKS
