About the Item

The commode in the image is a Napoleon III commode from the mid-19th century. It is a beautiful and elegant piece of furniture that is characterized by its rich ornamentation and use of contrasting materials. Materials The commode is made of ebony veneered with brass and tortoiseshell. The brass is cut into intricate patterns and then inlaid with the tortoiseshell.

Decoration The commode is decorated with a variety of motifs, including foliage, scrolls, and flower shapes. The brass is often gilded, which gives the commode a luxurious appearance.
