Louis XV Desk Attributed to “Sormani” with Bronze D’Ore Mounts

This French Louis XV marquetry bureau plat dates back to the 19th century and is attributed to the artist "Sormani". Born in Venice and working in Paris, Paul Sormani was one of the most gifted craftsmen in the 1800s. The large writing desk features exquisite bronze d'ore mounts. Note the work from the table legs to the muses facing the writer, the handle and key as well as the framework on the top. The piece features a leather, gold tooled writing surface and is in fantastic shape.
