The figural ormolu mounts to this table epitomize the 'style arabesque' developed by the celebrated Louis XVI maître Adam Weisweiler and his marchand-mercier, Dominique Daguerre. The caryatids heading the legs are inspired by a table, now in the Louvre, supplied in 1784 by Daguerre to the Queen Marie-Antoinette. Influencing fashion as she had a century earlier, Marie-Antoinette was again à la mode during the second half of the 19th century. A flourish of small gueridons emerged in the goût Weisweiler, including examples by the century's distinguished ébénistes who specialized in meubles de style, including Paul Sormani (see lot 162), Henry Dasson and Alfred Beurdeley.
