Superb bookcase in solid walnut and elm burl veneer with carved decoration of algae and shells. Central part with projection opening through a glass door with rich wrought iron decoration, the sides open with two solid doors and two drawers in the lower part. It rests on a massive plinth with rounded corners, the handles, keys, and keyholes are in gilded bronze, the shelves are adjustable in height. Thisse Nancy hot stamp, superb cabinetmaking quality. We do not have any documentation on the Thisse house, we have sold several pieces of furniture bearing this stamp, always with a quality of cabinetmaking equal to that of Majorelle. We have the flat desk model.
