This imposing and beautiful pair of sideboards is part of a rare and important Regency-style dining room set in molded and carved oak. Breche marble top and bottom with a wooden crosspiece. This set is for sale on our website and also includes:
- a pair of silver cabinets with a large door, curved sides
- a table, a suite of 9 chairs and a pair of armchairs

The set, of very fine sculptural quality, comes from the Château de la Haute Forêt in Bréal sous Montfort and belonged to the Edouard Nignon Collection.

The Château, built in 1857 in a half-Gothic, half-Renaissance style, is listed as a Monument Historique with its extremely well-preserved interior decor: floors, panelling, ceilings and fireplaces. Edouard Nignon, who commissioned our dining room set in 1919, lived in the Château until his death in 1934. He was a Grand Chef of French cuisine with a European reputation and experience. He served Tsar Nicholas II and Austrian Emperor Francis Joseph. From humble beginnings, his talent enabled him to climb the culinary ladder and win over the greatest chefs of the day. His cookery book, Éloges de la cuisine française, published in 1933, was a great publishing success and is still widely published and sought-after by apprentice cooks today.
