Commode tombeau en noyer de style Louis XV, rocailles sculptées

Tout ondule : la façade en arbalète, les flancs bombés, la ceinture chantournée et les pieds cambrés terminés en enroulement. Deux tiroirs se partagent la hauteur, chacun sculpté de deux cartouches rocaille à feuillages, de part et d'autre d'une entrée de serrure en écusson fleurie d'une rosace. Les poignées tombantes, à rosaces elles aussi, jettent des reflets de métal clair ; l'une, à droite du tiroir bas, diffère des autres par son dessin. Sous le plateau de bois mouluré, le noyer prend un ton de miel, piqueté de fines ponctuations.

La commode naît en France vers 1690 et reçoit son nom en 1708. La forme dite en tombeau, à façade galbée et bombée, appartient à la Régence et au règne de Louis XV ; le Louvre en conserve un exemple estampillé de Jean-Baptiste Saunier, en palissandre, à quatre tiroirs sous un dessus de marbre. Le meuble présenté, daté du XXe siècle, parle la même langue avec d'autres moyens, le noyer sculpté et un plateau de bois là où le modèle du Louvre joue du palissandre et du marbre. Il reprend une forme du XVIIIe siècle plutôt qu'il ne la prolonge.

Read in English

Everything undulates: the serpentine front, the bombé sides, the shaped apron and the cabriole legs ending in scrolls. Two drawers share the height, each carved with a pair of rocaille cartouches with foliage on either side of a shield-shaped escutcheon set with a rosette. The drop handles, also on rosettes, throw pale metallic glints; one, on the right of the lower drawer, differs from the others in design. Beneath the moulded wooden top, the walnut takes on a honey tone, pricked with fine speckling.

The commode appeared in France around 1690 and took its name in 1708. The form known as en tombeau, with a curved and swelling front, belongs to the Régence and the reign of Louis XV; the Louvre holds an example stamped by Jean-Baptiste Saunier, in rosewood, with four drawers beneath a marble top. The piece offered here, dated to the twentieth century, speaks the same language by other means, carved walnut and a wooden top where the Louvre model uses rosewood and marble. It revives an eighteenth-century form rather than continuing it.

Sources and points to validate
  • La commode apparaît en France vers 1690 et prend son nom en 1708. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commode_(meuble)
  • La commode en tombeau, façade galbée bombée, est une forme de la Régence et de l'époque Louis XV ; exemple du Louvre estampillé J. B. Saunier, en palissandre, quatre tiroirs, dessus de marbre. https://collections.louvre.fr/en/ark:/53355/cl010112044
To be validated
  • La fiche range le meuble sous « Louis XV - Transition » alors que la forme en tombeau relève plutôt de la Régence et du début de Louis XV : la catégorisation est celle de la Galerie des Minimes.
  • Nature du travail (massif ou placage), plateau, ferrures, nombre de tiroirs, pieds et signature d'atelier non indiqués.
  • État « en l'état » repris sans détail sur d'éventuelles restaurations ou manques.
  • Dimensions sans unité dans la fiche, entendues en centimètres.
