This Antique French Louis XVI Style Ebonized Bronze Mounted Cabinet is a remarkable example of refined Parisian craftsmanship and timeless neoclassical elegance, attributed to the distinguished ébéniste Victor Roulin. Exquisitely detailed and richly finished, this piece embodies the grandeur and symmetry of the Louis XVI and Napoleonic Revival styles, making it a stunning focal point for any sophisticated interior.
Expertly crafted from deeply ebonized wood, the cabinet showcases a rich, almost black finish that provides a striking contrast to its gilt-bronze ormolu mounts — meticulously cast with classical motifs characteristic of late 19th to early 20th century French decorative arts.
The front door features an inset hand-painted porcelain plaque, framed by ornate bronze trim and depicting a delicate neoclassical scene rendered with exceptional color and precision.
Every detail of this cabinet reflects superior artistry: from the precisely fluted sides to the intricate bronze appliqués and elegantly tapered legs capped with ormolu sabots. The interplay of dark ebony tones and shimmering gilded bronze creates a dramatic and luxurious aesthetic.
While unsigned, the cabinet’s exceptional quality and stylistic hallmarks are consistent with pieces attributed to Victor Roulin, a celebrated French cabinetmaker active during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Roulin’s work is known for its fine bronze mounts, porcelain plaques, and ebonized finishes, reflecting the opulence and refinement of the Louis XVI and Napoleonic Revival movements that captivated Parisian society of the era. The cabinet is in good antique condition with some minor surface scratches and finish loss as to be expected of an item from the 1900s.
