French 18th Century Provincial Chest of Drawers

About the Item

This is a fine example of a mid-18th century Louis XV provincial serpentine walnut chest of drawers. The chest is in overall very good condition. The chest features a serpentine front, molded top, 4 carved drawers with a "concealed"/secret central top drawer, shaped skirt and paneled sides. The dog-form hardware, although old and of the period, appears to be replacements. The old waxed surface has acquired a lush natural patina. Amazingly, the chest retains its key. Please refer to photos for details. ***Please contact us for additional shipping quotes to the East Coast.
