About the Item

One of a kind and wonderful 18th-century Louis XV transitional style chest with a curved design and delicate marquetry motifs. It features two front registers, each displaying finely crafted precious wood marquetry that adds a touch of luminosity to the piece. The handles and keyholes are in gilt bronze and ormolu, with rich, sinuous rocaille and scrollwork movements. The side panels are expressed with a refined intarsia geometry. It is made of rosewood with lemon wood ornamentation and topped with a striated gray breccia marble with white veining. The entire chest is enriched with gilt bronze fittings and sablots that embellish the legs, handles, and keyholes. The soul of this piece is made of traditional 18th-century spruce and retains its original period locks. A museum piece of extraordinary quality and artistic and historical value.
