EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a stunning Cabinet from 1652, crafted with exquisite attention to detail using fruitwood, ebony, ivory, and brass. Created by the French School in the 17th century, this masterpiece is housed at The Geffrye Museum of the Home in London, UK. Originally purchased by Mary for her husband John Evelyn in 1652, this cabinet holds historical significance as it belonged to an English writer, diarist, botanist, and gardener. Its floral panel design beautifully contrasts against its black motif stand and veneered doors adorned with marquetry woodwork. The intricate craftsmanship of this piece is evident through its raised wooden panels and incised ebony legs. The decorative chest features engraved ivory doors that add a touch of elegance to its overall ornate appearance.
