Mark Gooch Marblizes
 
This handsome and highly important Scagliola marble and ormolu enriched sideboard and its accompanying pedestals attributed to S. Jamar is exactly the type of work demanded by wealthy and important clients to decorate their houses. It draws its inspiration from the classical world, with numerous motifs making reference to poetry, literature and to learning, but also from France and the grandeur of Louis Quatorze's court at Versaille. In particular, its robust architecture corresponds to that of a pillar-fronted bookcase bearing the brand of S. Jamar, who traded as a 'French cabinet maker' in London's Wardour Street and claimed in 1818 that much of his furniture, bronze-enriched in the French manner, was 'equal to any made in Paris.' English, Circa 1810. Piece is 8 inches is length. Flowers are by Martha McClean and statuettes are by Joe Addotta. Please click on picture to enjoy enlarge photo.
