Louis XVI-style cupboard from the early 20th century. Four truncated pyramid legs support a curved front with a single door on olive hinges, and a rare purple breccia top. The cabinet is veneered in mahogany with marquetry inserts made from small, opposing squares of blond mahogany. The entire surface is enriched with finely chased and gilded bronzes. The legs feature small floral festoons, uprights with gilded bronze asparagus inserted into the tapers, cornices in the inserts, and leafy scrolls in the band below the top are also gilded bronze. At the center, a lion's head between two oak and ivy branches holds a drape in its mouth, from which hangs a myrtle branch that decorates the central medallion depicting a bacchanal with fauns.
