Provincial Empire Mahogany Marble-Top 4-Drawer Commode/Chest. France, Circa:1820

About the Item

While this commode or chest was made in one of France's provincial cities it has the style and form of the best Napoleonic Empire furniture. The size makes it perfect for smaller rooms while not stinting on style or patina. It is made of mahogany and soft wood. The white marble top appears to be original and the ormolu mounts -- especially the lion head pulls and escutcheons -- add a touch of high style. We feel this piece fits in any room, any decor and will be a welcome addition.
