A little insight into the Boulle Style, also known as Boulle marquetry or Buhl work, is a decorative art technique that originated in France in the 17th century. It was named after the French cabinetmaker André-Charles Boulle, who was known for his exquisite furniture pieces made using this technique.
The Boulle style involves inlaying brass or pewter into a wooden surface, creating intricate designs and patterns. The metal is cut into intricate shapes and then inlaid into the wood, often in a contrasting color, to create a stunning decorative effect. The designs typically feature intricate scrolls, foliage, and figures, and can be seen on a variety of furniture pieces, including cabinets, tables, and desks.
Boulle marquetry was very popular during the reign of Louis XIV in France and was often used to decorate palaces and royal residences. Today, the Boulle style is still admired for its intricate beauty and is often replicated in modern furniture design.
