[QUOTE="Lecollectionneur, post: 436902, member: 8569"]Thanks to confirm my opinion, 1849 is certainly right, stylistically, if it was 1819, it will be really different, in France they call this design Charles X at his time and it was a beginning of the 18th century in form with a lot more "fanfreluches", here the engravings and embossing foliages and no more with the modernism of the biedermeier period. The use of the guilloché was very "à la mode" at this period too with the use of the "tour à guillocher" which was more primitive before.[/QUOTE]
