Huge vases, tiny Dresden ornaments, rich carpets, branches and lustres of cut-glass and ormolu, almost jostled each other, while the centre of the room was filled with lounges, chairs and tables, rich in buhl and marqueterie.
"The Master of the Ceremonies"
George Manville Fenn

Mrs. Humphry Ward
All this time she is opening a very pretty marqueterie writing-desk, on spiral legs, which Longcluse has been listlessly admiring, little thinking what it contains.
"Checkmate"
Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu
