Early 18th Century Regence Period Lyonnaise Walnut Commode / Chest of Drawers
About the Item
This rare and unusual Lyonnaise commode dates back to the 18th century and is made of beautifully carved walnut. The piece features five drawers with the original bronze handles and escutcheons. The top row features a secret center drawer that opens only when the flanking drawers are ajar. The carved walnut and bronze casting combines to display balance and beautiful craftsmanship.
The piece is part of the collection from The French Antique Shop, a fourth generation antique store in the heart of the French Quarter of New Orleans. A space that was created and curated at first by Marie and Marcelle and Granet. Their first shop was located in the heart of Paris, and opened in 1919 after they migrated to Paris from Romania post World War I. Shortly after establishing themselves in Paris, as a Jewish family they were forced to flee in the late 1930s before World War II. Marie and Marcel opened up their shop in New Orleans in 1939, the city in which this antique collection has grown and continues to flourish. The store is now run by the third and fourth generation, Marc, Michael, and Brian Friedlander, and is a highly curated space filled with rare antiquities, fine antique lighting, eclectic fixtures, and everything in between. We have imported all the antique items in our collection directly from France.
