Louise Semainier Linen Presses in Smooth Antique Bronze by Paul Mathieu for Stephanie Odegard
Size- 24"x 16"x 66"H
Materials - Antique White Bronze, Metal sheet, Teak, Wood, Metal
Techniques: Hand-Crafted, Hand-Carved, Metal Work, Wood Work, Metal Wrapping, Polished
Please note that moisture in air, sudden change in temperature and natural movement of wood over time causes the metal to wrinkle or bubble up. We use well seasoned, reclaimed teak and high quality marine grade MDF (wherever technically possible) to avoid and delay the mentioned changes. However a perfect stability of metal cannot be guaranteed.
Please note that our smooth finish metal clad pieces will have some unavoidable tool marks. This is proof that everything is done by hand. The smooth finish will not come out like a machine made perfect surface and the master artisan will do their best to make it look as good/clean/stable/perfect as he possibly can.
The antique white bronze finish is hand done by using an acidic chemical over the white bronze finish to recreate a natural patination. Like with the natural patination of silver, copper, or brass, the final result and color uniformity of the patina cannot be guaranteed. The goal of this finish is to achieve rainbow-like shades with dull, shiny, cloudy, and streaky patches to give an illusion of antiquing.
Please note:
None of our metal clad pieces are treated with a protective “finish” thus enabling the items to age naturally over time. We will of course polish them well before we pack them.
a) Copper oxidizes faster than the other metals. In six to twelve months it will most likely lose its shine and will gradually turn to different shades of brown and/or green/blue. This aging process and its effect is referred to as verdigris. After a year the piece should not change much more. Copper does not rust, but does require periodic cleaning in order to retain its original shine if that the preferred option. ('BRASSO' or any known copper polish can be used to polish copper).
b) Brass retains its shine for far longer than others, but will tarnish if not cleaned on occasion. ('BRASSO' is made to polish brass).
c) White bronze, has the least tendency to show age or tarnish. If kept in a controlled climate, this metal will hold its shine for years. It can be cleaned with a cleanser and polished with a cloth.
d) The antiqued white bronze finish will react with the natural elements the fastest in the beginning but it too will stop reacting and will settle down in a stable state like copper after 6-12 months. Since it is already antiqued and looked like it is tarnished, as described in an earlier message, this fast reaction will not change the over all look. In that way this surface is most forgiving.

- French Louis XVI Style Parquetry & Bronze Antique Armoire Wardrobe ca. 1880Located in Shippensburg, PALOUIS XVI STYLE PARQUETRY-INLAID ORMOLU MOUNTED ONE-DOOR ARMOIRE Paris, France circa 1880 lock stamped "B & P Paris", back of one mount stamped "L.P." Item # 403BDA14P This exquisite Louis XVI style armoire is a picture of the high precision cabinetwork the French ébénistes of the 19th century were capable of producing. Crafted in Paris in the last years of the 19th century, the cabinet is finished on the top with an original marble top shaped to conform to the cabinet profile. This is raised by a thin crown of egg-and-dart molding over a repeating greek-key border executed in solid brass. The front door is a brilliant display of parquetry inlay work, an extraordinarily complicated arrangement that comes together flawlessly: the kingwood veneer ground is set diagonally while being bookmatched down the center to create symmetry - a form that is more fully developed in the sides of the case where these diagonal veneers are set into rectilinear and square panels for greater effect. This surrounds a rosewood and stringer-inlaid border encasing a latticework of rosewood astragals over squared lighter hue woods. The application of the veneers is so convincingly executed - note the curves of the rosewood inlays where the grain of the wood twists to create spirals that appear to layer upon one another. In the center of the door is a large ormolu mount of a Neoclassical urn with bacchus masks on either side raised over a pierced footer embellished by foliage. This door opens using only a key, as there is no knob or pull hardware to allow access to the space. The interior is a very spacious and simple arrangement that allows clothing to be hung while valuables and smalls are stored in the cupboard at the top. No keys are presently available for the door or the interior cupboard, but if locking the armoire is important than having keys fabricated is never terribly difficult and can be done by our shop upon request. The lock is marked on the inside by the fabricator "B & P Paris", while one fo the rosette mounts on the corners of the cabinet is marked "L.P." A magnificent example of Parisian craftsmanship from the late 19th century, this is a very fine armoire of ideal dimensions for both function and aesthetically.
