Image description

The pietra dure (hardstone) plaques and micromosaic roundels on this pair of cabinets were probably made by Italian craftsmen in the late 17th century, A hundred years later they were mounted in cabinets of oak, pine, and beech veneered with ebony and mahogany with pewter stringing, gilt-bronze mounts, portor d'Italie marble tops. William Beckford, a wealthy English connoisseur of hardstones, may have ordered this cabinet to be made with identical gilt bronze mounts to match the earlier one he bought in the French Revolution (XOS1765282).
