Napoleon III Furniture
NAPOLEON III STYLE
Under Napoleon III’s rule, Paris underwent a great rebuilding overseen by Baron Georges-Eugène Haussmann, which created grand avenues and lavish landmarks like the Paris Opera. Antique Napoleon III–style furniture was flamboyant and eclectic. It was also known as Second Empire style since it followed and referenced the Empire style of his uncle Napoleon I.
Developing from 1852–70, Napoleon III furniture was plush and ornate, matching the fashion for masked balls and socializing in salons. It borrowed freely from earlier French styles including Louis XIV, Louis XV and Louis XVI as well as aesthetics from around the world, from antiquity to Asian art. As writer Gustave Claudin remarked in 1867, the country’s architects worked in “a style which one would be tempted to call neo-Greco-Gothico-Pompadour-Pompeian.”
Napoleon III chairs were completely covered with velvet and lined with tassels; pouf footstools invited people to put up their feet. Sofas were upholstered with tapestries, and beds were adorned with gilt bronze and theatrical canopies. The addition of conservatories to homes led to new indoor-outdoor furniture, while the spirit of hygiene promoted by Baron Haussmann inspired bright, floral motifs.
Although the most ostentatious designs were for the elite, as seen in the Napoleon III apartments preserved in the Louvre, where red velvet, gilding and chandeliers create a cacophony of luxury, these trends influenced homes across classes as manufacturing made design increasingly accessible. Papier-mâché furniture allowed for elaborate shapes that would have been difficult to carve in wood. The malleable material was painted with chinoiserie patterns and decorative designs. It was mass-produced by factories such as Jennens and Bettridge with varnishing and mother-of-pearl inlays creating an effect reminiscent of Asian lacquer. (Surfaces that had been “japanned” — a specialty of Jennens and Bettridge — were intended to resemble lacquer work that was created in East Asia.)

An Impressive French Napoleon III Style Gilt Bronze Surtout de Table, Circa 1900
Located in Dallas, TX
Surtout de table are ornamental French trays, designed to be placed on a dining table as a centerpiece for formal occasions. Our Napoleon III-style surtout de table, which dates to circa 1900, would make an impressive addition to any dining table.
Measuring over 50 inches long and 32 inches wide, this surtout de table features a large piece of shaped glass encircled by an animated scene of a putti hunting party. In each corner of the frame is a pair of gilt bronze putti, facing in opposing directions, armed with a spear. All the cherubs are resting on curled leaves that emerge from a pierced, segmented console. The foliage, which has a fluted ground, continues around the frame, enhancing the sinuosity of the mirror. Depth is added in the form of the numerous gilt bronze hunting dogs that are giving chase to scattered wolves and deer. Some of the hounds are actively engaged with their prey, who really stand out due to their patinated bronze chocolate color. The result is a beautiful gilt bronze surtout...

Elegant French Iron Fire Screen, New, Handmade, 22" to 35" Wide, 22.4" Tall
Located in Soest, NL
Replica of an antique original. Produced exactly as it used to be made ??and they are thus difficult to distinguish from an old original.
Important advantage of this type of fire screen is that, while elegant, you don't really notice it, you just enjoy the fire. It is of a simple yet elegant simplicity. It is beautiful, rustic and classic. It quietly enhances the fireplace's charm. It is present without taking the attention away from the fire and the other fireplace accessories. The black color of this new handmade screen supports this effect.
The holes in the mesh are small enough to protect against the sparks, but large enough to limit the heat radiation of the fireplace as little as possible.
The fireplace screen fits in both a classic and a modern interior.
center panel: 50 cm (19.7") wide, Side panels: each 20 cm (7.9") wide.
The functional width is 6 cm (2.4") less for the firescreen to stand by itself, or a functional width of 57 cm (23") up to 89 cm (35"). At a width of 57 cm (23") the screen is 22 cm (8.7") deep and at 89 cm (35") wide it is 13 cm (5.1") deep.
Color: black (matt).
This fireplace screen is handmade and can therefore show imperfections (paint, finish, etc.) that do not occur in industrial production. We cannot provide any guarantees on these imperfections.
We can deliver this type of fireplace screen in different sizes. The number of panels can vary from 2 to 6. It is also available in several heights. It cannot be customized, but due to the possible variations it is suitable for most fireplaces. Contrary to popular belief, it is often not necessary for the fireplace screen to cover the entire height of the inside of the fireplace. A height of 50 cm (19.7") is usually sufficient for a fire screen if a quiet fire is lit with dry, suitable wood.
