Rafraichissoir Serving Table Based on a Design by Joseph Gengenbach Dit Canabas
About the Item
A late 19th century Louis XV style Rafraichissoir based on a design by renowned cabinet maker Joseph Gengenbach dit Canabas (1715 - 1797). The rafraichissoir was developed in the 18th century as a result of the need for privacy and thanks to the implementation of a new room, the dining room. The 18th century French aristocracy had a need for a breakfast, luncheon or dinner without eavesdropping by nosy servants. And so, the rafraichissoir came into being. A small table on casters with wells for wine bottles, a marble top for serving food, a drawer for cutlery, napkins and wine openers, as well as shelves for additional covered plates of food for later courses and additional serving plates. This particular rafraichissoir is stamped under the top shelf with the makers logo. The two removable wells are silver plated and have a 5.75" diameter opening. There are two oblong areas on either side of the wine wells. The brass rail around the marble protects against tipsy spills. The drawer directly under the top has a gorgeous brass pull and two wood pins so that the drawer cannot be pulled all the way out. There are two shelves. The casters roll beautifully. Set your perfect table and give the help the night off. This rafraichissoir will roll delightfully around your table while you and your guests serve themselves, free to speak and behave however you desire. Wink, wink.

- 1980s Dansk Denmark Brown Mist Covered Casserole Serving Dish by Niels RefsgaardBy DanskLocated in Atlanta, GAA vintage lidded casserole serving dish in Brown Mist by Niels Refsgaard for Dansk. You may know Dansk, if not don't worry I'll get to them later. For now, let's look at who Niels Refsgaard is. From a Dansk catalog, "Niels Refsgaard has been an integral part of the Dansk story for more than 60 years as a designer, creator, and brand champion. Niels prefers to be called a “simple country potter” and it is his amazing talent and devotion to his Craft that shines through in all that he creates. We can’t think of a design collaboration between brand and craftsman that has stood the test of time the way the Dansk and Refsgaard marriage has. That longevity has yielded much success along the way, as evidenced by the fact that so many of Niels’ dinnerware patterns are still active in the Dansk line today. We like to think of Niels as one of Mid-Century Modern’s ceramic masters, and as this design theme is enjoying renewed attention in the last several years we have not only re-issued some of Niels’ early work, we’ve commissioned him to develop a new approach to the casual dining experience." And now, let's look at the 'brown mist' design - Dansk Brown...Category
