Rare golden lacquer and brass Maison Jansen sideboard 1970s
-
Description
An exciting example of French design firm Maison Jansen’s commissioned pieces. This large sideboard is made from solid mahogany, lacquered in a rich dark brown and bronze–golden finish. The resulting effect is a beautiful mottling of color around the entirety of the piece. Bright brass in the feet, frame, accents, and handles highlights the warmer, lighter colors of the wood. The stately proportions are impeccable.
The care that went into the construction of every tiny detail of the sideboard is clear—as each piece was made on order only for clients who could afford the top tier of Maison Jansen design, immense time was able to be taken in its construction an finish. The result of such careful attention and high-quality materials is this truly masterful piece. It’s also highly rare, as the design was never mass-produced. -
