Italian Neoclassical style matched veneer sideboard, U. Brichetto, Genova, 20th c., with marquetry in the manner of Giuseppe Maggiolini (Italian, 1738-1814), depicting flowering cornucopias, foliate scrollwork, and floral roundels, fitted with three drawers, flanked on each side by single cabinet door, revealing interior fitted for fixed-height shelf, rising on tapering squared supports, retaining maker's label at back, approx 35.5"h, 82.5"w, 20"d **Note: part of a large furniture suite comprising two sideboards, a dining table, an armoire, a dressing commode, and a lot of eight dining chairs offered in this auction**
07.30.25: In my opinion, I note that the sideboard is structurally secure and stands sturdy, the marquetry being overall well-preserved and free from notable losses, the case overall having some typical minor veneer chips at edges commensurate with age and use, also having some minor woodworm commensurate with origin, I observe a couple minute spots of peeling finish, and some areas of crazing/ alligatoring, the drawers operate smoothly, and interiors are overall well-kept, the gilt metal hardware remaining securely mounted
