Small French Inlaid Marquetry Bombe Chest with Fossil Limestone Top

About the Item

A stunning vintage French Bombe chest of drawers of small proportions. Beautiful Satin wood with marquetry inlay of rosewood and other exotic timbers. The top is a most gorgeous fossil limestone. Condition is very good with a few small nicks and nibbles of veneer loss. The limestone is also in good condition, a good polish while not being over shiny. We do not have the key for the drawers but they are unlocked. Please note - due to the rosewood content of this piece a CITES import/export permit is required to ship this item outside of the UK. We will obtain this, it takes approximately 6 weeks and costs £80.
