About the Item
A refined Louis XVI period commode crafted from solid walnut, dating to the late 18th century. This elegant French chest of drawers opens to three full-length drawers, each fitted with original lock escutcheons and classic drop-handle brass pulls, all set within molded panel fronts and separated by clean horizontal crosspieces. The commode stands on fluted uprights that taper into turned legs—hallmarks of the neoclassical style that emphasize balance and symmetry. The solid walnut top showcases the natural beauty and grain of the wood, with a rich patina developed over centuries. A single key operates the locks on all three drawers. This piece blends timeless elegance with functional storage and would make a distinguished addition to both traditional and transitional interiors.
