About the Item
A handsome French walnut and fossil-marble commode from the 19th century, closely resembling the Empire style with strong proportions and quality the period is known for then pared down to its most necessary elements. The dark stone top reveals tiny inclusions of fossilized marine life, like constellations in the night sky. All three drawers incorporate a shield escutcheon for a non-existent lock, using brass knobs to open. The amber-toned grain of the walnut gives the piece a sense of movement and warm color, softening the rectilinear geometry of the case, with areas of patina that adds organic charm. In place of the columnar pilasters on each side, the corners are elevated by block feet. Tightened, cleaned and polished with a French paste wax, this fabulous commode is ready for your interior. Make sure to view the detailed images for a closer look.
