The serpentine frame is designed in the Louis XV picturesque manner. With its pierced foliate stretcher and terminating in acanthus-wrapped volutes, it relates to table patterns invented by Nicolas Pineau (d. 1754) and published by J.J. Mariette in Nouveaux Dessins de Tables et de Vases et Consoles de sculpture en bois, 1734.
