Dimensions: 29.25 inches high x 16.75 inches wide x 13 inches deep An elegant and exceptionally refined antique French Louis XVI style table vitrine, masterfully crafted with fine mahogany veneers, hand-chased gilt bronze mounts, and beautifully beveled glass panels. Designed to showcase treasured collections while serving as a sophisticated decorative accent, this petite display table embodies the timeless elegance and architectural balance associated with the finest French Neoclassical furniture. Gracefully proportioned and richly detailed, the vitrine features a fully glazed display case with beveled glass on the top and sides, allowing light to illuminate displayed objects from multiple angles. The interior is lined in a rich green presentation fabric, creating a striking contrast against the warm tones of the wood and gilt bronze accents while providing an elegant backdrop for jewelry, objets d'art, watches, silver, miniatures, or other treasured collectibles. The finely constructed case is framed with delicate gilt bronze moldings and hand-chased ormolu mounts that highlight the sophisticated geometry of the design. Every bronze element demonstrates the exceptional level of craftsmanship associated with high-quality French decorative arts, exhibiting crisp detail and refined execution. The subtle shimmer of the gilt bronze complements the rich mahogany finish, creating a luxurious visual balance that feels equally at home in both traditional and contemporary interiors. Raised upon elegant tapering Louis XVI style legs, the vitrine exhibits the clean architectural lines and restrained ornamentation that define the Neoclassical period. Decorative gilt bronze collars accent the upper sections of the legs, while bronze sabots terminate the feet, lending additional refinement and visual continuity throughout the piece. A gracefully shaped lower shelf provides both structural support and additional display or decorative functionality. The shelf echoes the elegant curvature of the table's design while showcasing the rich wood grain and meticulous cabinetmaking found throughout the piece. Fine brass inlay and bronze accents further elevate the overall presentation, demonstrating the superior attention to detail expected from high-quality French furniture. The beveled glass panels create depth and dimension while enhancing the display qualities of the cabinet. Combined with the elevated table form, the piece functions beautifully as both a display vitrine and an elegant occasional table, making it highly versatile for a variety of interior applications. Ideal for use as a jewelry display cabinet...

The upper vitrine is crowned with a shaped bonnet featuring carved scrolls and a richly detailed central crest decorated with birds, grapes, floral bouquets, and a woven basket motif. Two glazed doors with shaped moldings open to reveal two interior shaped shelves designed for the display of faience, porcelain, glassware, or treasured collections. Delicate carved floral garlands and foliate motifs embellish the façade throughout, while the original brass escutcheons and hardware add authenticity and charm. The upper display section has been fitted with interior lighting controlled by a convenient on/off switch, allowing collections to be beautifully illuminated.

Inside, the case offers generous storage and retains an interior pull-out drawer.

A Gothic Revival reliquary. Circa late 19th / early 20th century. Made of solid oak with fine carving. Reliquaries have been used to store relics since the Middle Ages. In sacred architecture they are often located behind the main altar in the chancel. In addition to classical, often church-like caskets, anthropomorphic, so-called "speaking" reliquaries were also made, which already inform the viewer about their contents through their own design. Mostly they were made of precious metals and decorated with rich sculptural ornaments or precious stones. One of the most famous examples of reliquaries is the Epiphany shrine of Nicholas of Verdun from the late 12th or early 13th century in Cologne Cathedral. The reliquary offered here has an architectural structure with a rectangular ground plan. The three-sided glazed box with a dormer roof rests on a plinth. A total of 8 columns of Corinthian order form the arcades which are crowned on both long sides by 3 lancets each and enclose the lancet windows...
