Souyeux Establishments (attributed A) : "exceptional Art-deco Sideboard"

Etablissements Souyeux (attributed to): “Exceptional Art-Deco sideboard”, macassar ebony veneer on the outside and sycamore on the inside. 92 X 299 X 50 (at the formwork) or 54 cm (at the handles). Many small lacks of plating, especially on the handles and on the edge of the drawers, varnished chanci on the top where there is also a deep scratch, some drawers slide badly. Despite its imposing dimensions, this piece of furniture is not massive thanks, among other things, to the recessed plinth and the external boxes of hanging drawers. The Etablissement Souyeux was a very important cabinetmaking house in Nay (Pyrénées Atlantiques) which, for decades, employed a large number of workers and during the period between the wars specialized in neo-Basque furniture and Very high quality Art-Deco furniture and exotic wood veneer that they exported all over the world. Well, that's it, a page is turning: after 11 years of occupation, we are leaving our company apartment in Biarritz while waiting to find one of our own, but the Galerie de Biarritz is of course continuing its activity. But Nature and I abhor a vacuum, I let you imagine everything that was inside and the house where we are regrouping the move may be big, I will have to separate little by little of a certain number of objects, furniture and paintings… So, it is the case to say it, they are from an excellent provenance!
