Edwin Foley: Master of Timeless Elegance Step into the world of late 18th-century decorative furniture with Edwin Foley, a renowned artist whose craftsmanship has left an indelible mark on history. From 1911 to 1912, Foley's artistic prowess was showcased in various exquisite pieces that continue to captivate connoisseurs and enthusiasts alike. One such masterpiece is the painted and inlaid satinwood sideboard and mahogany bracket clock. With meticulous attention to detail, Foley transformed these functional objects into works of art that exude sophistication and charm. Intrigue awaits within "The Sister Inlaid Double Secretaire and Bookcase Cabinet, " a Sheraton-inspired creation by Edwin Foley. This enchanting piece seamlessly blends functionality with beauty, offering hidden compartments for secrets yet to be discovered. Transport yourself back in time as you gaze upon the opulent throne room in the Palace of Fontainebleau, France. Through his brushstrokes, Foley brings this regal setting to life, allowing us a glimpse into the grandeur of centuries past. Delve further into history with the campaign desk of Napoleon I at Chateau de la Malmaison. Edwin Foley's rendition showcases not only his technical skill but also his ability to capture the essence of an era long gone. Foley's talent extends beyond furniture alone; he effortlessly crafts circular tables and folding screens that add flair to any space they inhabit. These versatile pieces are testaments to his versatility as an artist. No royal chamber would be complete without mirrors fit for monarchs or beds worthy of emperors. Edwin Foley presents us with both—an oval mirror and bed belonging to none other than Napoleon I himself—each reflecting elegance personified. A carved gilt couch covered in rose Brocade de Lyon epitomizes luxury under Foley's expert hands. Its intricate details invite you to recline upon its sumptuous cushions while basking in the splendor of a bygone era.
