A LOUIS XVI ORMOLU-MOUNTED TULIPWOOD, AMARANTH, HAREWOOD, EBONY AND HOLLY BUREAU A CYLINDRE
BY JEAN-HENRI RIESENER, CIRCA 1775-85
The rectangular top with three-quarter pierced gallery, above three cross-banded and filleted frieze drawers, the central drawer fitted with an easel and gilt-tooled leather-lined writing surface, the tambour cylinder inlaid with herringbone bands and centred by oval panels with uprights mounted with floral and foliate mounts, enclosing a leather-lined slide, pigeonholes and small drawers, the frieze with three drawers, the central drawer mounted with scrolling foliage and flowerheads framed by two panelled drawers, the sides each with a writing slide and an ink drawer and with moulded parquetry panels, the back decorated with lozenge parquetry, on tapering legs headed by ormolu angles cast with acanthus leaves, on paw feet, stamped five times 'J H RIESENER'
48 in. (120 cm.) high; 53 in. (134 cm.) wide; 30 in. (76 cm.) deep
Acquired by Stephens Lyne Stephens (1801-1860) or his wife Yolande Marie-Louise Lyne Stephens, née Duvernay (1812-1894), Lynford Hall, Norfolk,
until sold at her estate sale 'Mrs. Lyne Stephens'; Christie's, 9 May 1895, lot 99,
where acquired by 'A. W.'.
Collection of Ludwig Neumann (1859-1934), 11 Grosvenor Square, London,
until sold his sale, Christie's London, 2 July 1919, lot 90,
where acquired by Frank Partridge.
Collection of Henry Lascelles, 6th Earl of Harewood (1882-1947) at Chesterfield House, London, where photographed in the drawing room in 1931,
until sold 'By orders of Her Royal Highness The Princess Royal, The Rt. Hon. Earl of Harewood, removed from Harewood House, Leeds'; Christie's London, 28 June 1951, lot 90.
Acquired by Ivor Guest, 2nd Viscount Wimborne (1903-1967),
thence by descent.
This
bureau à cylindre by Jean-Henri Riesener reflects the extraordinary quality of the celebrated
ébéniste's production as well as the role of the
garde-meuble de la Couronne in propagating taste among the French Royal Family and their circle. Bearing the hallmarks of his predecessor Jean-François Oeben the bureau is closely related to a model executed for the Royal Family . The present example formed part of the lavish collections of the magnates Stephens Lyne-Stephens and then Ludwig Neumann before being acquired by the Earl of Harewood for Chesterfield House and finally the Viscount Wimborne.
