Item Description / Dealer Expertise

A Rare and Impressive Late 19th Century Transitional Style Bronze Mounted Cabinet. By Winckelsen.

Charles-Guillaume Winckelsen (1812-1871) made high quality furniture in the style of the Eighteenth Century during the Nineteenth Century. He was established at 23, Val-Sainte-Catherine, Paris from 1854 until his death in 1871. As a result of his comparatively short career little of his work is available today. All recorded items by this maker are of of the highest quality, especially the bronze work. Jean-Louis-Benjamin Gros was his main furniture maker and Joseph-Nicolas Langlois his chiseller.

The atelier of Charles-Guillaume Winckelsen is one of the undiscovered secrets of the Second Empire exhibition period. Born in 1817, at the new dawn of the Bourbon dynasty, Winckelsen died in 1871 as the Third republic was being formed. Thus his whole philosophy of design, alongside his contemporaries, was one of maintaining the emblems of the ancien regime, a fashion attributed to the de Goncourt brothers, their writings and collections. In re-using motifs from the eighteenth century Winckelsen favoured the Louis XVI style without reverting to simple pastiche , however at no time did he ever attempt to copy or re-use moulds of an earlier period.
