The convex side doors displaying boxwood stringing and incorporating an adjustable shelved interior and flanking five graduated central drawers with laurel loop handles, ingeniously locked by the pivoting mahogany moulding running down the sides of the drawers.

Gervais-Maximilien-Eugene Durand (b. 1839) et Fils
Specialising in the production of 18th century style furniture of the finest quality, Gervais-Maximilien-Eugène Durand (b. 1839) exhibited at the Exposition Universelle of Paris in 1889, gaining a silver medal, and the praise of the judges, who compared their work with that of Beurdeley and Dasson. With his son Frederic-Louis joining him in 1902, the firm changed its name to Durand et Fils. His work may be seen in the Museum of Decorative Arts of Lyon.
