Of serpentine outline, the mottled white marble top over two doors centered by gilt bronze classical figures and marked at the corners with foliate gilt bronze mounts, above a shaped apron and block feet with further gilt bronze mounts. Note: Charles Cressent specialized in veneered and marquetry pieces and was particularly noteworthy for his bold gilt-bronze mounts. His furniture is typically unsigned, however a large body of work has been attributed to his workshop. Comparable pieces can be seen in Danielle O. Kisluk-Grosheide, Furniture in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, pgs. 114-116.
