Description

This description has been translated and may not be completely accurate. Click here to see the original

A Louis XV period commode veneered in violet wood, opening at the front with three drawers in three rows separated by exposed rails adorned with brass stringing.

This commode features a beautiful curve on both planes of the front, the sides also curved on both planes, with brass stringing separating the upper and lower panels.
The marquetry displays a design of reserves and stringing framing a violet wood frieze arranged in a "butterfly wing" pattern, the sides displaying the same decoration.
The drawer rails are inlaid with brass stringing.
This commode boasts exquisite ornamentation of gilt-lacquered and chased bronze mounts, drop handles, apron, corner mounts, feet, and keyhole escutcheons.

The top is of Belgian Rance red marble, a marble widely used in furniture and fireplaces during the 17th and 18th centuries; a marble particularly prevalent at the Palace of Versailles. This chest of drawers is mounted on a fir frame, with walnut drawer fronts and backs.

It is in excellent overall condition.
Dimensions: Width: 138 cm, Depth: 68 cm, Height: 92 cm
