Late 18th Century Small Neoclassical Chest of Drawers

About the Item

A refined example of late 18th-century Italian neoclassical furniture, this petite chest of drawers is both elegant and functional. Veneered in a sophisticated blend of walnut and olive wood, the piece is enriched with delicate fruitwood details that subtly outline the drawer fronts, enhancing the contrast and depth of the natural grain. The smooth, rectangular top sits above two generously proportioned drawers, offering practical storage with understated beauty. Original round brass pulls add a hint of formality, while the scalloped apron provides visual softness. The sharply tapered legs, carved in the distinctive truncated pyramid shape typical of the Louis XVI style, lend an architectural quality to the composition. Compact in scale yet full of character, this piece is ideal for smaller spaces—whether used as a bedside chest, entryway storage, or elegant accent in a living room. Crafted in Italy during the neoclassical period, it speaks to an era of balance, proportion, and timeless artistry.
