Note du spécialiste

Introduced in 1890, this popular design by Linke was produced by the firm through 1919 and, in the present bijouterie glass version, was part of Linke's award-winning display at the Paris Exposition Universelle in 1900, illustrated in situ in C. Payne, François Linke: The Belle Epoque of French Furniture, Woodbridge, 2003, p. 122, pl. 137. Linke created several variants, including a fleur de pêcher marble-topped table, which can be seen in Linke's Place Vendôme showrooms in 1903 (C. Payne, pp. 160 & 161, pls. 171 & 172). Another vitrine-table was sold Christie's, New York, 18 November 2014, lot 101 ($43,750).
