18th-century Wall-mounted Shelf
Wall-mounted shelf made of cherry wood with amaranth inlay
The lower section opens with two doors inlaid with Maltese crosses and lozenges; the period wrought-iron lock plates echo this motif.
The sides of the upper shelves are openwork with multilobed motifs and hearts.
This shelf rests on a scalloped side base.
The original antique hardware has been preserved: keyholes, latches, lock, and mounting brackets
A piece from the Louis XV period
A shelf for sale at the Dantan Gallery and stamped by Jean-François Coulon, who was admitted as a master on January 10, 1732, in Paris and resided on Rue du Vieux-Colombier, suggests that this piece was likely produced in Paris.
Condition: two missing sections of the molding, a localized crack on one side that does not affect structural integrity, patina in need of restoration, standard restoration on the left panel
