About the Item
18th Century, Italian Baroque Veneering and Inlays Wood Commode
This elegant and refined commode was crafted in Piedmont, Italy, in the first half of the 18th century, during the Baroque period. Veneered in walnut wood, the commode is richly decorated with inlays of boxwood, featuring elegant Baroque motifs with ramage and foliated volutes that create a striking visual effect. On the front, the four drawers are framed by inlaid boxwood borders, with mirrored panels finished in poplar burl. The handles and lock escutcheons are in burnished bronze. The bands of the piece that separate the drawers are also in burl. The sides are decorated with mirrored walnut wood panels, boxwood inlays, and burl. The commode rests on four shapely, curved feet.
A particularly rare and unusual feature is the movement of the front, concave in the center and convex towards the lateral ends. The rounded and high-quality uprights are inlaid with geometric patterns. The top has a flowing, shaped profile that creates a sense of sinuosity and movement. The rounded edge is lacquered in black. The decoration includes a double fillet in boxwood that forms a veneered frame in walnut wood. Large fields of burl interspersed with walnut wood are bordered by boxwood inlays, creating geometric elements and phytomorphic decorations. The various hues of the wood species create a play of light and shadow, giving the piece an exceptional elegance and great decorative effect.
Due to its exquisite craftsmanship, compositional elegance, and pleasing dimensions, this commode can easily be placed in any room of your home, such as the bedroom, study, entrance, or living room. It is suitable to complement both antique furniture and modern-style pieces.

18th century, Italian Policrome Lacquered Wood Chest of Drawers
This small and elegant chest of drawers was made in Genoa, northern Italy, around the middle of the eighteenth century.
