But where does the name &quot;Mazarine&quot; come from?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Well, it would seem that a first prototype was manufactured for the famous <a href=\"https:\/\/fr.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Biblioth%C3%A8que_Mazarine\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mazarine Library<\/a>, Quite simply.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The illustrious creator of the commode was none other than Andr\u00e9-Charles Boulle himself. In 1708, for Louis XIV&#039;s bedroom at Trianon, he revolutionized a type of furniture: the commode. It owes its name to its practical, &quot;commode&quot; shape, compared to the chests that were then very common. Now on display at Versailles, the king&#039;s two commodes perfectly encapsulate Boulle&#039;s art: originality in both design and form, marquetry of copper and tortoiseshell, and an abundance of bronze mounts. Moreover, they are among the few identified pieces from his vast body of work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But let&#039;s return to our chest of drawers. It probably dates from the mid-18th century. Its coniferous body is assembled with dovetail joints. It is veneered with olive, blackened pear, barberry, boxwood, and sycamore maple. The keyhole escutcheons and the crow&#039;s foot feet are mercury-gilded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There wasn&#039;t much work done on the veneer or the structure of this chest of drawers. It had probably been restored a few years ago. But it was while stripping the thick layer of cellulose varnish, bleached by time, that the damage became apparent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/ebenisterie-mathieuvath.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_7c1b-768x1024.gif\" alt=\"Commode Mazarine Louis XIV, restauration\" class=\"wp-image-1370\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ebenisterie-mathieuvath.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_7c1b-768x1024.gif 768w, https:\/\/ebenisterie-mathieuvath.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_7c1b-225x300.gif 225w, https:\/\/ebenisterie-mathieuvath.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_7c1b-700x933.gif 700w, https:\/\/ebenisterie-mathieuvath.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_7c1b-520x693.gif 520w, https:\/\/ebenisterie-mathieuvath.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_7c1b-360x480.gif 360w, https:\/\/ebenisterie-mathieuvath.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_7c1b-250x333.gif 250w, https:\/\/ebenisterie-mathieuvath.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/UNADJUSTEDNONRAW_thumb_7c1b-100x133.gif 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption>Observation of the perforations<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This photo clearly shows all the holes in the blackened pear tree, caused by excessive sanding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But why are these pierces found only in the blackened pear tree?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Well, this chest of drawers was veneered using a hammer. The cabinetmaker first veneered the back with blackened pearwood, then the frieze with olive wood. He then inlaid the marquetry motifs, pre-cut with a scroll saw, using a knife. Finally, he scraped, sanded with a dog-skin cloth and a fine file, before polishing the piece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"602\" src=\"https:\/\/ebenisterie-mathieuvath.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/IMG_2320-e1559806385836-1024x602.gif\" alt=\"Commode Mazarine Louis XIV, perces dans le poirier noirci\" class=\"wp-image-1379\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ebenisterie-mathieuvath.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/IMG_2320-e1559806385836-1024x602.gif 1024w, https:\/\/ebenisterie-mathieuvath.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/IMG_2320-e1559806385836-300x176.gif 300w, https:\/\/ebenisterie-mathieuvath.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/IMG_2320-e1559806385836-768x451.gif 768w, https:\/\/ebenisterie-mathieuvath.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/IMG_2320-e1559806385836-700x412.gif 700w, https:\/\/ebenisterie-mathieuvath.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/IMG_2320-e1559806385836-520x306.gif 520w, https:\/\/ebenisterie-mathieuvath.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/IMG_2320-e1559806385836-360x212.gif 360w, https:\/\/ebenisterie-mathieuvath.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/IMG_2320-e1559806385836-250x147.gif 250w, https:\/\/ebenisterie-mathieuvath.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/IMG_2320-e1559806385836-100x59.gif 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The blackened pearwood base is therefore slightly thinner. During the sanding of previous restorations, disaster struck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The wide, toothed plane marks are clearly visible.
