Historical Background
Louis XV reigned from 1715-1774. This period reinvigorated French furniture and breathed new life into the older Baroque style.
During the reign of King Louis XV, artists and craftsmen developed several secretaire models. The romantic motifs and gilding accented these particular pieces beautifully.
There was the bureau plat and le bonheur du jour, a small desk with a hutch that debuted during this period. This design caught on so well that its use continued into 19th-century designs.
