A chronological résumé of furniture by Boulle no longer in France, with a focus on the United Kingdom

The furniture of André-Charles Boulle is often inextricably linked to the court of Louis XIV and Versailles. Yet this would appear to be something of a mischaracterisation, for only a small percentage of pieces of furniture attributed to Boulle were made for Versailles (and even then, for the Grand...

Les meubles d’André-Charles Boulle sont souvent étroitement associés à la cour de Louis XIV et à Versailles. Or il s’agit là d’un point de vue erroné. Une faible proportion des meubles attribués à Boulle fut initialement destinée à Versailles (et dans ce cas au Grand Trianon ou à la Ménagerie plutôt qu’au château lui-même). Le plus surprenant, pour des objets d’ordinaire considérés comme le nec plus ultra du savoir-faire français, c’est l’ampleur de leur diffusion à l’étranger, en particulier en Angleterre, qui fut souvent le premier pays à les accueillir.
