An Empire mahogany and gilt metal mounted suite of seat furniture, stamped for Chateau de Saint-Leu, circa 1810, comprising five chairs, rectangular studded backs, the tapestry decorated with musical trophies and bouquets of flowers in medallions on garnet background, gilt metal anthemion mounts, open arms, arm supports carved as stylised female busts, anthemion mounted frieze and square tapered legs, two further armchairs with padded sides, of similar design, some chairs with a crowned stamp ‘SL’ and numbered top seat rails, 92cm high., 62cm wide, 60cm deep; together with a similar settee, of later date. For a related suite of seat furniture also bearing the stamp, see Christies Important French Furniture, 25th May 1993, New York, Lot 88. The ‘SL’ brand is that of the chateau de Saint-Leu, on the edge of the Fôret de Montmorency. In 1774, the late 17th century chateau belonged to Jean-Jacques de Laborde, banker to the Court, who carried out many improvements, particularly to the gardens. In 1777, the property passed to another well-known banker Nicolas Beaujon, who sold it in 1780 to the duchesse de Chartres, wife of Louis-Philippe-Joseph, duc de Chartres (1747-1793). The duc de Chartres, Philippe-Egalite, succeeded his father as duc d’Orleans in 1785; his wife was the daughter of the duc de Penthievre and granddaughter of the comte de Toulouse. The chateau was purchased by her in order to escape the notice of the duc de Chartres’ many creditors. It was at Saint-Leu that madame de Genlis, their governess, educated the duc de Chartres’ five children. On his succession in 1785, the duc d’Orleans sold the chateau de Saint-Cloud, an Orleans property, to Louis XVI. In 1792, the duc d’Orleans handed over the chateau de Saint-Leu to the marquis de Giac. In 1804, Saint-Leu was bought by Louis Bonaparte, King of Holland from 1806-1810, who became comte de Saint-Leu after his resignation in 1810, and from 1810-1815 the chateau was the home of his wife, Queen Hortense, daughter of Empress Josephine. Following the Cent Jours (June 1815) the chateau was bought by the last Prince de Conde and after his death in 1830 it was demolished.’
