"Pedestal Table Stamped Jacob"
Exceptional is very rare Gueridon from the end of the first empire era. pedestal table rocking with wrought iron system of "extraordinary" origin for purists! It is entirely made of solid Cuban mahogany, the mahogany is so beautiful and tight that it has purple reflections. Stamped from the famous Ebéniste family by family inheritance no less brilliant than George Jacob ..... one can perceive by opening the pedestal table the stamp IACOB ......... JACOB DIT DESMALTER Georges ... Georges -Alphonse Jacob Dit Jacob-Desmalter (1799 - 1870). He had a lot of talent, student of Percier, he drew with conscientiousness and meticulousness his productions, of which he looked after the ornamental decoration. Notice to collectors I give this pedestal table because I can't keep everything but I will be happy to pass it on to a passionate and purist of furniture from the first quarter of the 19th. Note: the double groove tray is 3 cm thick and when looking at the tray there is also an exceptional double groove.
