專家說明


Adrien Faizelot-Delorme, maître in 1748.
Adrien Faizelot Delorme belonged to a family of ébénistes, the son of François Delorme, and brother of Jean-Louis Delorme. Adrien was not only famous for his lacquer work, but he also had an excellent reputation for the quality of his marquetry which can be seen to good effect on many of his commodes. He established himself in the rue du Temple, both as an ébéniste and a marchand, and worked there mainly in the Louis XV style, until he disposed of his stock in 1783.
Similar scrolling foliate inlay appears on the interior of a vernis Martin bureau de dame by Adrien Delorme in the James A. de Rothschild Collection at Waddesdon Manor, Buckinghamshire (G. de Bellaigue, The James A. de Rothschild Collection at Waddesdon Manor, Furniture, Clocks and Gilt Bronzes, London, 1974, vol. I, pp. 278-281) while a bureau de dame by Pierre Garnier has the same fan-rayed parquetry on the fallfront (sold from the collection of the Viscomte de Selins, Parke-Bernet Galleries Inc., New York 18 March 1939, lot 127). Closely related fan-rayed parquetry also appears on a bureau de dame by B.V.R.B., sold anonymously Christie's London, 1 July 1976, lot 123, and on another sold at Sotheby’s, Paris, 27 April 2017, lot 81.
