Žans Fransuā Lelē

Žans Fransuā Lelē (Jean-François Leleu 1729 - 1807) bija vadošais 18. gs. mēbeļu ražotājs ebenists (ébéniste) Francijā. Lelē mācījās Žana Fransuā Obēna (Jean Francois Oeben) darbnīcā un par meistaru kļuva 1764. gadā. Viņa mēbeles bija pazīstama ar savu augsto kvalitāti, eleganci un izturētību, ar ielaidumiem no pulēta dimanta, rožu un ziedu pušķu ornamentiem. Strādājot viņš izmantoja Sevres porcelāna un lakas ieliktņus.


Жан-Франсуа Леле (Jean-François Leleu 1729 - 1807) был ведущим французским производителем мебели (эбенист) восемнадцатого века. Леле обучался в мастерской Жана-Франсуа Эбена (Jean Francois Oeben) и стал мастером в 1764 году. Его мебель была известна своим высоким качеством, элегантностью и сдержанностью, со вставками из бриллиантов, розами или цветочными букетами. При работе он использовал, также вставки из Севрского фарфора и лака.

Andrē Šarls Buls (fr. André-Charles Boulle, 1642 — 1732) - franču mākslinieks, zīmētājs, kokgriezējs, gravieris, zeltītājs, izcilākais sava laika mēbeļnieks, sava īpaša stila radītājs. Pēc izcelsmes flāms, no 1672. gada Luija XIV galma mēbeļnieks. Galvenā meistara stila iezīme ir īpašā inkrustācijas tehnikas nepārspējamā daudzveidība. Savos darbos A.Š.Buls eleganti kombinē dažādu šķirņu kokmateriālus, ieskaitot eksotiskās Indijas un Dienvidamerikas šķirnes ar bruņurupuča bruņām, ziloņkaulu, perlamutru, misiņu, sudrabu, bronzu un citiem materiāliem. Pēc viņa nāves, darbnīcu mantoja viņa četri dēli, kas turpināja darbību no klasiskā baroka līdz pat rokoko. Pašlaik Bula un viņa pēcteču mēbeles var redzēt Luvrā, Versaļā, Fontenblo, Klunī muzejā Parīzē.



Андре - Шарль Буль (фр. André-Charles Boulle, 1642 - 1732) — французский художник, резчик по дереву, гравер, рисовальщик, позолотчик, крупнейший мастер-мебельщик своей эпохи, творец особого стиля художественной мебели. Фламандец по происхождению,  с  1672 придворный мастер Людовика XIV. Особенностью стиля мастера стала искусная инкрустация в технике «маркетри», получившая в его работах невиданное ранее разнообразие. В своих работах Буль изящно сочетал разные сорта дерева, в том числе экзотические индийские и южноамериканские породы, панцирь черепахи, слоновую кость, перламутр, латунь, серебро, бронзу и другие материалы. После его смерти мастерская перешла к четырем его сыновьям, и мебель наследников эволюционировала от классического барокко к рококо. В настоящее время мебель Буля и его наследников хранится в Лувре, Версале, Фонтенбло, в парижском музее Клюни.





Šī kumode ir tādas pašas konstrukcijas un izskata, kā pāris, kuras izgatavoja Buls Luija XIV guļamistabai  Grand Trianon, 1708.gadā. Lai gan šis modelis tika kopēts vairākas reizes astoņpadsmitajā un deviņpadsmitajā gadsimtā, šis eksemplārs šķiet agrīna kopija, veikta paša Bula darbnīcā.
