About the Item

18th century, Italian Neoclassical Lacquered Wood Chest of Drawers This neoclassical chest of drawers was made in Piedmont in the second half of the 18th century, in carved and lacquered wood. The rectangular top with rounded corners is lacquered in faux marble. Through a folding opening system, the top can be opened by pressing a button on the front, which unhooks the closure. Under the floor there is a secret compartment, useful for storing documents or small objects. The dresser is equipped with three drawers, with vents of the locks and handles in gilded bronze and chiseled decorated with neoclassical taste, including ribbons and bows. The drawers are decorated with embossed molded frames. The spaces of the background and overhang that are created are lacquered with different colors. The backgrounds are in light blue, some frames in blue and others in yellow, like the center of the drawer front. Similarly, the underside band has backgrounds in light blue and molded frame in blue. Near the corners, the wood is carved in the shape of a grooved lesena and lacquered in yellow and blue. The sides of the cabinet have a yellow background enclosed within a blue frame, heavenly backgrounds and yellow frame outside. In the corners of the blue frames of the furniture there are wooden elements lacquered in yellow of circular shape that contribute to the decoration of the furniture and the chromatic game. The four lacquered wooden feet have an inverted cone trunk, leaf elements, grooves and circular wooden tips. This dresser retains the elegance of the time, very decorative for its particular color. Easily inserted in any furnishing context, it can be used in entrances, lounges, studios, bedrooms and bathrooms, being suitable for storing documents, personal items and clothing. Its particular dimensions make it a large piece of furniture and difficult to find in the antique market.
