About the Item

This French, 18th century solid carved walnut commode exhibits strong proportions and generous storage capacity within a case of five drawers below an angular plank top, notched at the front corners and dotted with visible square peg joinery among natural patina. The upper row is divided into two identical drawers to the left and right, with one narrow drawer at center. Note that the key has been cleverly fixed to the escutcheon instead of a pull or knob to open. All drawers have unique grain patterns on their fronts–like painterly brush strokes–calling attention to organic beauty and variation in the wood, punctuated by large brass knobs which are modern replacements selected for their quality. This 1700s commode is sure to add just the right balance of historic style to a dressing room, bedroom, or living space. Cleaned and polished with a French paste wax, ready for your interior. Be sure to view the detailed images for a closer look at the current condition.
