About the Item

Elegant French Louis XVI period commode crafted in cherrywood with fine geometric marquetry inlay, dating from the late 18th century, circa 1780. This refined piece features two spacious drawers with intricate chevron inlaid borders and original bronze ring pulls and escutcheons in neoclassical style. The clean, architectural lines are highlighted by fluted stiles and tapered legs, typical of the Louis XVI aesthetic that sought harmony and symmetry. The warm cherrywood has developed a beautiful patina over time, showing traces of wear consistent with age and authenticity. The top retains its original boards, and the drawers reveal traditional dovetail joinery, lined with remnants of antique floral paper. The commode’s elegant proportions make it ideal for both classic and contemporary interiors—perfect in a bedroom, hallway, or living space. A charming and authentic example of provincial French craftsmanship, offering timeless elegance and understated sophistication.
