Identify Antique Paris Dining Set

An ornately carved side to a dining room table.Antique dining set I inherited. I had a friend of mine look at it and he says it is mahogany wood and there is stamps on some metal hinges that say "Brevets Vc Paris" and "E. C. D. G." The carving is very artistic and the hinge and sliding lock is pure quality. Table seats up to 12.

This is really a beautiful set and it should actually be looked at by a professional. I tried to find the company that has made this but the marking on the hinge is not helping me to identify this table at all. This could have been made in Paris by a furniture company but I am not finding any references to this at all.

I would like to suggest that you consult an antique dealer in your area or even online to see if they can help you identify this set or give you some more information about it. I am not finding anything that is similar to this or even information about a company in Paris who has made a set like this in the past.

The word Brevet is the name of a commissioned officer with a higher rank title as a reward for gallantry and other accomplishments with high award. It can also be for a French Nobleman This piece may have been a dinning table for higher ranked Military personnel or French Noble.
