Both were made by Pottier & Stymus circa 1865 and not by Alexander Roux. The plaques were likely made in a Paris factory by Sevres or Limoge for P & S and shipped to the U.S. and applied to various furniture items, such as the credenza and parlor table. The two images reflect Michaelangelo and Raphael, both Renaissance artists. Our credenza has French egyptian painted plaques, but everything else is identical.<p class="top-comments">Current score: <span class="top-comments-karma" id="karma-43">0</span> <small>(to vote for this comment, please visit the site)</small></p> In regards to the reported Roux credenza and the cut-down parlor table, we happen to own the parlor table and we also own a near identical credenza.
