French 19th Century Transitional Style Mahogany and Ormolu Commode

About the Item

A sensational French 19th century transitional st. mahogany, ormolu, and Sarrancolin marble commode. The three drawer chest is raised by handsome cabriole legs with elegant, high quality pierced wrap around foliate ormolu sabots. At the center are the three drawers, the bottom two being sans traverse (without crossbar) showcasing the cabinet maker's high skill set and emphasizing the beautiful wood grain which spreads over the drawers. The bottom drawer displays an elegant scalloped shape with a central striking richly chased ormolu mount with a fine foliate design. Each drawer displays lovely berried laurel cabochon reserve pulls with the top and bottom ones concealing keyholes. The bottom lock locks both the bottom and the central drawers. The sides also display a lovely scalloped shaped design and showcase the warm wood grain. The corners display impressive richly chased ormolu mounts of draped berried laurel garlands with fluted designs and inverted foliate finials. Above is the original Sarrancolin marble with a fine mottled border.
