About the Item

A refined 19th century French Louis XVI style commode, crafted with a beechwood structure and veneered in warm-toned walnut arranged in elegant chevron and quarter-turn patterns. This graceful piece features three drawers — two deep and one shallow — adorned with finely chased gilt bronze hardware, including rosettes, ribboned escutcheons, and neoclassical keyhole mounts. The top is crowned with a striking Breccia marble slab in a beautifully veined palette of soft lilac, ivory, green, and golden tones, offering a luxurious contrast with the warm wood grain. Gilt-bronze mounts highlight the neoclassical lines of the piece, with fluted corner posts decorated with lyre-shaped appliqués and feet terminating in lion paw sabots. Dating from the second half of the 19th century, this commode was produced in homage to the Louis XVI period and exemplifies the precision and grace of neoclassical French cabinetry. A sophisticated addition to any interior, this piece is ideal for a bedroom, entryway, or refined living space.
