About the Item

19th Century French Louis XVI Painted Chiffoniere ~ Commode with Carrara Marble is a true marvel of the cabinetmaker's art! Hand-crafted from solid French walnut which was still in abundance during the Napoleon III period, it was designed in the neoclassical revival form with stately, tailored architecture enhanced by embellishments and corner columns reminiscent of the glory of ancient Greece and Rome. The top consists of elegant Carrara marble contoured and beveled to follow the casework below. Each corner transitions to intricately turned, fluted and carved columns, together flanking the six drawers below. Each drawer features a carved crest with foliate sprays or torcheres with ribbon forming a key guard which is flanked by carved wood knobs. Another relief carving graces the apron below. Fine molding detail creates a framework for the drawer facades, which together open to create abundant storage, making this piece as functional as it is beautiful to behold! If you act fast, the original companion pieces are still available as of this writing, visible in the second photo.
