Large Commode Transition with Marquetry of Quartefeuille

About the Item

Exceptional commode from the transition period in rosewood veneer in amaranth frames and green tinted wood threads. Superb marquetry decoration with a beautiful upper frieze on the front and on the sides with quarte-leaf motifs, always on the front three panels of rosewood in butterfly wings delimited by double Greek friezes. Saint Anne gray marble top. Beautiful ornamentation of finely chiseled gilded bronze. Opens five drawers in three rows, the two large ones in the lower part are without crossbar. Our chest of drawers has the most representative and prestigious codes and patterns of the transition style. In addition, the cabinetry and marquetry work is of very good quality. All these clues suggest that it comes from the workshop of a renowned Parisian master cabinetmaker. Very good condition, original marble top and without gluing, the five original locks work with their key, original and superbly chiseled gilded bronze. Our chest of drawers has been completely restored to its original condition by our workshop with the application of a natural varnish ( french polish) using traditional methods.
