Pierre Roussel, maître in 1745.
This elegant transitional commode is stamped by the celebrated ébéniste Pierre Roussel I (1723-1782) who supplied furniture for the Palais-Bourbon as well as the Chateau de Chantilly.
The sophisticated trellised parquetry de carrés quatre-feuilles sur fond de cubes, mosaiced in Roman pavement fashion, was favoured by a number of aebénistes in the 1760s. It also appears on commodes bearing the stamps of the fabricant and marchand Lonard Boudin (maître in 1761) and Pierre Denizot (maître in 1740) (illustrated in P.Kjellberg, Le Mobilier Franais du XVIIIme Sicle, Paris, 1998, pp. 92, 254, 255 and 92). In addition, it appears on a commode stamped by Daniel Deloose (maître in 1767), sold at Sotheby's London, 27 November 1987, lot 264.
