Italian Louis XVI bedside table or small sideboard, 1780
About the Item
This refined bedside table/small sideboard was made in Lombardy (Italy) in the neoclassical period, towards the end of the 18th century.
The wooden structure is veneered and decorated with inlays in various essences.
The front of the neoclassical cabinet is divided into an upper drawer and a lower door which opens concealing an internal compartment. Both the drawer and the door are inlaid in a herringbone pattern on the outside, then various essences follow one another until reaching the central frame also inlaid with light essences on a darker background.
The sides of the eighteenth century bedside table are also inlaid.
Here too we find foliated elements in the center typical of the neoclassical period bordered by inlays of other essences. The door and the upper drawer have small bronze handles. The uprights are decorated with inlays with classic natural elements. The truncated pyramidal legs are also inlaid.
This cabinet, very refined and difficult to find on the antiques market due to its small size and four slender legs, can be displayed in the center of a small wall, between two sofas or armchairs, positioned in the bedroom or used as a small piece of furniture as a support or sideboard along a corridor, an entrance or a living room, pleasant both in combination with modern furnishings.Red marble top.
Period: 18th century, 1780

Pair of neoclassical Italian chests of drawers in inlaid wood, XVIII century
Located in Vicenza, IT
This exceptional pair of Italian neoclassical 18th century dressers in wood richly inlaid on the front, sides and 4 truncated pyramid legs are top-quality example of Italian 18th century cabinetmaking. The pair of commodes are originals from the second part of the 18th century (1780).
The front of the pair of commodes is divided into three levels of drawers, two thinner ones at the top and bottom and a thicker central one. This arrangement makes the front of the pair of drawers even more elegant.
On the front of the central drawer stands a large oval with two mirror-image neoclassical figures represented. Rich and complex foliate motifs start from the oval and extend gracefully across the entire surface. Corresponding to the upper and lower drawers, both frontally and laterally, runs a band with inlays depicting classical style garlands with ribbons, cameos and phytomorphic elements. On the side, inside geometric figures created through the combination of various wood essences there are other garlands and recurring elements in the inlays of the neoclassical period.
The pillars are also inlaid with floral and leaf decorations. The four truncated pyramid legs are also inlaid.
These eighteenth-century Italian chests of drawers were exhibited at the Triennale Museum in Milan on the occasion of the exhibition "Il Salone, la città", which took place in conjunction with the "Salone del Mobile" in Milan. We have all the documentation attesting to this museum exhibition.
The dressers are entirely inlaid with the use of different wood essences. The inlaid surfaces have also been pyrographed and burnished and are in excellent condition. This very refined technique allows you to create greater definition of the decorations, giving three-dimensionality and chiaroscuro to the drawings. With a dark background, the elegant inlays create neoclassical designs inspired by the taste of the time and the famous furniture of the Lombard cabinetmaker Giuseppe Maggiolini di Parabiago, who brought the inlay technique applied to neoclassical furniture to the highest levels.
The marble top is contemporary. The handles and mouthpieces of the locks, also original, are in gilded bronze.
The neoclassical furniture of the eighteenth century
The last quarter of the eighteenth century coincides with the affirmation of the neoclassical taste, in opposition to the previous rococo or baroque style, particularly widespread and appreciated in Lombardy. An echo of this transition is visible in Maggiolini's first works, namely rounded chests...
