| Notes | The Kambli's cartonnier is a copy of a furniture acquired by Frederick II in 1746 in Paris for his Sanssouci Palace in Potsdam. The original was created by Jean-Pierre Latz. The Wrocław's version was most probably intended for King's bedroom. It incorporates a Paris made clock adorned with figures of Aurora and Chronos. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
