About the Item

A French Empire painted commode, with marble top and brass accents, from the mid 19th century. This antique chest from France features a rectangular-shaped marble top which rests above a case which houses four graduated drawers (top drawer is hidden within the top frieze), flanked within rounded column-style front side posts with solid brass wrapped accents. The three lower drawers are each fitted with a pair of nice round brass pulls, and an elaborately decorated escutcheon within their center. The skirt is cleanly molded and this piece is presented upon a pair of thickly rounded column legs at front and block legs at rear. The finish is a blue color with grey mixed within it and black columns, which work well within the black marble top. Please note that there are some scratches to the marble top, which can be viewed in the additional images. This mid 19th century French Neoclassic Empire chest-of-drawers is a versatile case piece which would work well in many rooms; offering great storage within and a place for desired objects to be prominently displayed atop.

Antique French Neoclassical Style Commode w/Black Marble Top & Scraped Finish
Located in Atlanta, GA
A French two-drawer commode, with shallow break-front design and marble top, from the early 20th century. This antique chest from France has a black marble top which rests atop a wooden chest consisting of two drawers flanking between canted front side posts, and raised upon four legs (cabriole at front with squared at rear), and a subtle break-front design that carries through from the marble top, down the case and onto the swag-carved front apron. Neoclassical style hardware embellishes the front side posts, center of skirt, front feet and drawer fronts (ring pulls with escutcheon). The black marble top with grey veining contrasts nicely against the primarily stormy sea-blue scraped finish with bits of wood and white gesso that show through from beneath. This early 20th century French commode...
