About the Item
A handsome French Empire walnut commode from the 19th century with period details embossed in the Neoclassical hardware like palmette motifs and cable twists. The top planks are finished to a knife-edge around three sides, enhanced by patina developed over two centuries that gives textural and tonal depth to the natural subtleties of the walnut. The overhanging frieze is a hidden drawer, free of hardware, using a pair of grooves carved into the bottom edge to slide open. Making up the body of the piece are three large drawers with patterned brass knobs and simple keyhole escutcheons, however no key is present. The drawer fronts showcase unique grain patterns of walnut that give the piece a sense of movement and warm color blending with the patina from daily use. Columnar pilasters on each side are emphasized with brass capitals and bases in Neoclassical foliate and twisting motifs rising from thick, block feet. Cleaned and polished with a French paste wax, ready for your interior. Make sure to view the detailed images for a closer look.
