The decorative pietra paesina plaques and figurative pietra dura compositions point to an Italian origin and in particular, to Florentine workshops, whilst the structure of the stand, with truncated pyramidal legs, shaped stretchers and ball feet, presents parallels with works attributed to cabinetmakers from the Low Countries such as Jan van Mekeren (c. 1658\u20131733), with comparable examples in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum, the Rijksmuseum and the Victoria and Albert Museum. The combination of pietra paesina with figurative pietra dura compositions appears to constitute a particularly unusual variant. A comparable example, with doors but decorated exclusively with pietra paesina plaques, from the Giovanni Pratesi collection, was sold at Sotheby's in 2023 (Giovanni Pratesi: The Florentine Eye, lot 40). Another related example, without doors and with all drawers decorated with pietra dura compositions, forms part of the collection of the Kuskovo Palace Museum, Moscow, from the collection of the Counts Sheremetev.<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nProvenance:<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nExhibitions:<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\n<br \/>\r\nLiterature:<br \/>\r\nKsenia Nemova, 'Chkap orekhovoi', ili Istoriia
