The cabinet is likely to have been commissioned and brought to England by the 1st Earl of Warwick, to display the marquetry. Born in Paris, the son of a Dutch cabinet maker,  Andre-Charles Boulle (1642-1732) is know often regarded as the greatest cabinet maker of all time. He soon came to the attention of the chief French finance minister, Colbert, who recommended him to King Louis XIV as the most skilful cabinet maker in Paris. Boulle was given royal protection and a workshop at the Louvre, which gave him exemption from the strict guild system, which then regulated furniture production in France.

This panel is a masterpiece of his early floral marquetry. 2. Lady's writing table 3. A pair of Gilt-Bronze fire dogs Object Type: fire dog Actual Date: c. 1735 Size: Height: 39 cm; Museum Accession Number: FW.118.a & b Each is cast in two pieces. The lower section is a roaring lion, its front paws supported on doubler acanthus scrolls, which continue upwards into further architectural scrolls with diapering between, which surround and surmount the figure of the lion. Above the lion, on the scrolls, is mounted the separate casting of a mythical winged beast with the head of a dragon, the fore-parts of a lion, and the tail of a serpent.  These are seen depicting scrolls and scrolling acanthus providing support for semi-reclining nude figures of a woman and a man, possibly Venus and Vulcan. In Classical mythology Vulcan was blacksmith to the gods, and thus was a suitable character to decorate the hearth.  They would originally have been attached to long, curing fire-irons on which burning logs would have been supported.

Receptionist could speak english so they arrange to speak with their manager over the phone. The room was old and in desperate need of update.

Bed was very uncomfortable and bathroom "unfriendly" to use...On second day I was moved back to Baan Silom Soi 3....Thank Funfranky Level Contributor“” via mobileGreat value central hotel. It's just down a side street but it's great as you get away from the traffic noise, yet it's only a 5 minute walk to Patpong market etc. I stayed here 2 years ago and didn't hesitate staying again. Level Contributor“” This small hotel is conveniently located in the Silom district of Bangkok, within easy walking distance of a multitude of restaurants, shops, banks, as well as two BTS Skytrain stations. The kind and thoughtful management and staff, along with perks such as two free bottles of drinking water per day and a reasonably priced same-day laundry service, make this place...

Will certainly stay here again. Perfect for getting around Bangkok.Thank Garrylane Level Contributor“” We booked 3 rooms in the Baan Silom Soi 3 in November for a family group as a base to visit Bangkok before going further North to explore Thailand further. We had touched down in the early morning and got to the hotel at about 9am. I had emailed ahead asking if there was any chance for an early check... Level Contributor“” via mobileMy wife and I have stayed here numerous times over the last couple of years and it is a nice but basic hotel, staff are really friendly and the location is excellent for the BTS. Silom and Patpong market are extremely close and there is plenty of restaurants to eat at nearby. Level Contributor“” Baan Silom is a nice quiet hotel in the heart of Silom road. It is off the main road down soi 3 but not very far. Everything you want is only 5 minutes walk away and it is close to the MRT to go outside the Silom area. I enjoyed my stay and will stay there again.
