STANDING DESKLouis XV, Paris ca. 1760/70, signed N. Petit (Nicolas Petit, maître 1761) and featuring the sign of the Master Craftsmen's Guild.Tulipwood and purpleheart, inlaid in reserves. The front and the rear feature small drawers, one of which is designed as a writing drawer for ink, etc. Hinged, slanted leaf lined with brown embossed leather (probably not original), opening up into a fitted interior lined with blue silk, with four drawers and twopartments. Gilt bronze mounts. 3 keys.100 × 55 × 123 cm.Restored. Side drawers probably supplemented. Light scratches in the lacquer. Front part of the frame slightly warped.In his more than 30-year career as a master ebeniste in the Rue du Faubourg Saint-Antoine, Nicolas Petit created an impressive number of items of furniture in various styles - from "Louis XV" via the Transition to "Louis XVI". He owed his excellent reputation and prosperous business to his immense creative power and variety. At the beginning of his career, following the tastes of the time, he made exquisite furniture, such as chests of drawers, secretaires, encoignures, ladies' writing desks and side-tables with curved shapes. The standing desk on offer dates from this time period. He proved to be a master of all materials, since both his extraordinarily fine marquetry and lacquer work were of the finest quality, and equal to the works of the most famous ebenistes of the period - B. Van Risenburgh, J. Dubois and J.P. Latz.A similar standing desk with only one shelf and a different veneer pattern and bronze mounts is illustrated in: Pierre Kjellberg, Le mobilier français du XVIIIe siècle, Paris, 1989, p. 644, Ill.

Der immensen Schaffenskraft und Vielfalt verdankte er seinen exzellenten Ruf und prosperierende Geschäfte. Zu Beginn seiner Laufbahn fertigte er, dem Zeitgeschmack folgend, exquisite Mö
