Connoisseurs know that these are in reality real “masterpieces” presented by candidates who wanted to become masters after six years of apprenticeship and a few years of companionship. These “master pieces of furniture” are replicas, down to the smallest detail, of chests of drawers, secretaries, cabinets, cupboards and other pieces of furniture, reduced to proportions of approximately 1/6th. The examiners of the Jurande for carpenters and cabinetmakers were very demanding in terms of the choice of wood, the assembly techniques and the perfection of execution.
