Exceptional, remarkable 18th century marquetry chest of drawers out of Italy, more precisely the Lombardy. Artfully crafted around 1780 with highest attention to details, this masterpiece of mid 18th century Italian craftsmanship is attributed to the school of the world famous cabinetmaker Giuseppe Maggiolini (1738 - 1814). The time-consuming restoration of this masterpiece took us more than 7 weeks and has been done by our most experienced master of restoration. The ultimate goal was to restore it the old way and preserve the unbelievable charm of this valuable 18th century dresser. With an age of more than 240 years, this rare Italian chest of drawers comes with a straight shaped body made of spruce and poplar, elaborately set nutwood, cherry and maple veneer works and incredible marquetry all over this unique commode. Providing three drawers - whereby the top drawer is a little narrower - this outstanding 18th century dresser is adorned by an amazing looking, inlayed depicition of an antique soldier with his wife and his child surrounded by extensively designed round frames made of maple and ebonized fruitwood. The large depiction on the front runs over two drawers. Also a great highlight is the chest´s top plate impressing with another fantastic round double frame work by showing a depcition of two women within floral patterns in the center. Different sized frames, all made of different kind of woods like cherry, maple and (ebonized) fruitwood complete the extraordinary appearance of this neoclassical masterpiece.
