A PAIR OF LOUIS XVI MAHOGANY TABOURETS BY GEORGES JACOB, LAST QUARTER 18TH CENTURY Each with a square padded seat covered in beige linen, the solid seatrails on tapering fluted legs ending in toupie feet, each stamped 'G. IACOB' 20 in. (51 cm.) high; 15 in. (38 cm.) square
Georges Jacob, ma?tre in 1765.
With frames entirely carved with mouldings, these elegant tabourets were executed by Georges Jacob circa 1785. Their most distinctive and unusual feature is the continuous, uninterrupted seat-rail, lacking corner blocks. A set of ten chaises probably en suite, conserved at the Mobilier National (GME 1574), were formerly at chateau de Fontainebleau and are illustrated in Jean-Jacques Gautier, Sièges en Société, Paris 2017, p. 170. Jacob supplied various sumptuous chairs to Fontainebleau in these years, most notably for Queen Marie-Antoinette’s boudoir, created in 1786.
