At an extraordinary fourteen feet tall, this monumental French Gothic Revival cabinet is a room-defining work of 19th-century decorative art. Commissioned for a château outside Paris, it is signed by celebrated sculptor-cabinetmaker Jean-Paul Mazaroz, whose prize-winning carved walnut buffet was acquired by Napoleon III for his study at the Château de Saint-Cloud. Its soaring cathedral-like crest, intricate hand carving, and massive solid-walnut construction give it the presence of a permanent interior rather than an ordinary piece of furniture.
Jean-Paul Mazaroz, 1823–1900, was one of the leading French sculptor-cabinetmakers of the Second Empire. Trained as a wood sculptor, he operated one of Paris’s foremost workshops for elaborately carved furniture, employing over 600 people. His work received international recognition at the great 19th-century exhibitions, and he was awarded a silver medal at the 1878 Paris Exposition Universelle, and furnished the royal courts at Madrid, St. Petersburg and Constantinople.
