About the Item

This 18th century Swiss chest of drawers is a fine example of high end craftsmanship from that period. The chest features a bombe shape and a stunning black marble top. Drawer fronts are inlaid with contrasting wood veneer in a geometric pattern. Two large drawers are flanked by four small drawers on either side - an element that makes this piece highly unique.
