拍品专文

This elegant bureau a cylindre, of striking architectural form with richly figured acajou moucheté and finely chased ormolu mounts belongs to the little-known cabinet-maker Joseph Kochly. Of swiss origin Kochly established his workshop in the Cour Saint-Joseph, rue de Charonne and became maître in 1783. The present bureau is closely related to an example also stamped Kochly and of nearly identical shape, illustrated in P. Kjellberg, Le Mobilier Français du XVIIIe siècle, Paris, 1998, p. 465.
