Stand Attributed to Gabriel Viardot (1830 – 1904)
Adorned with a top inlaid with elegant Tonkin mother-of-pearl motifs, this small piece of furniture in exotic wood follows the Japanese style for which Gabriel Viardot is known. With great refinement, the Asian-style decorative elements give rhythm to this slightly asymmetrical piece of furniture, which is a remarkable piece in the production of the famous cabinetmaker. The gilded bronze details illuminate the silky wood to give it a discreet touch of preciousness. This delicate piece of furniture from the best production of Viardot is in perfect condition.
