Jacob D., Rue Meslée, Compiègne: A Pair Of Empire-period Bergère Chairs

A beautiful pair of beechwood bergère chairs with a white lacquer finish overlaid with gray, featuring straight, square backs; the armrests are in the form of freestanding columns, resting on turned front legs with a tapered section, and saber-shaped rear legs.

Branded with an iron mark—CP beneath a crown within a circle—corresponding to the furniture of the Palace of Compiègne during the First Empire.
Two stenciled inventory marks, “C 7608” and “C 11560,” and two other marks beginning with a “C,” partially erased.
