Inlaid Dresser, Louis XVI Period
About the Item
A rare and refined Louis XVI period dresser from the Bolognese area, dating from the late 18th century. Crafted with exceptional attention to detail, this elegant chest features a harmonious neoclassical design supported by tapered, truncated pyramidal legs. The front showcases two large drawers with book-matched veneer and fine inlaid stringing, creating a striking mirrored effect.
Above, a discreet half drawer is integrated into the apron, enriched with geometric rhomboidal inlays framed by contrasting borders. The same exquisite inlay continues along the sides and top, unifying the piece with architectural precision. Constructed in walnut and adorned with marquetry in various fine woods, this dresser reveals the craftsmanship and balance characteristic of Louis XVI aesthetics.
Original brass ring pulls and escutcheons add a graceful, period-authentic touch. With its clean lines, refined decoration, and timeless symmetry, this piece is both a practical storage solution and an exceptional collector’s item—perfect for classical or contemporary interiors seeking understated luxury and historical depth.
