Teuné Cabinet

The meuble d’appui emerged in late eighteenth-century Paris as a low cabinet built to elbow height, set against the panelled walls of a salon and often crowned in marble. François-Gaspard Teuné, received as a master ébéniste in 1766, worked through the transition from Louis XV to Louis XVI, when marquetry moved from floral fantasy toward a more ordered geometry. Léo Sentou takes that moment as a starting point. Where Teuné assembled his pattern from fine veneers of contrasting woods, the Teuné Cabinet translates it into the grain and relief of solid oak, the timber that formed the carcass of most French cabinetwork of the period. The hand-gouged feet and hammered brass key echo the period’s attention to detail. Placed in an entrance, a dining room or between two windows, it carries the proportions of the eighteenth century into a contemporary interior.
