Dressing Table by Alexander Roux

More photos available on request. Gorgeous Rococo rosewood Victorian dressing table or vanity made by Alexander Roux, NYC. The original oval mirror has a open carved floral crest and side supports. It is attached to the original white marble that has an ornately shaped edge and recessed interior - a most attractive and unusual feature. The marble sets into the top of the vanity base. There are carved corners on the top of the base. A shaped front drawer with a lovely satinwood divided interior is in the middle. The front of the drawer and sides of the skirt are carved. The four graceful cabriole legs have carving and are supported by open carved cross stretchers. A large carved finial decorates the middle of the base. It appears to have the original castors. We are offering a matching rosewood table signed by Roux for sale to the buyer of this dressing table. It can be seen at this link: Roux Table.
