Commode Minature Long Walnut Maltese Cross Ebonised Fruitwoo
Located in BUNGAY, SUFFOLK
An exceptionally rare, museum quality Maltese, Neoclassical walnut chest of drawers with ebonised & fruitwood inlaid maltese cross on the top and drawer fronts Maltese furniture of this period is exceptional reflecting the status and affluence of the island. Given the size of the island relatively little Maltese furniture was made in comparison to Europe & American mainland. Minature furniture is rare made either as a model or an apprentice's piece so it is extremely rare to find a minature piece from Malta bearing the Maltese cross. This minature commode is highly original with beautiful proportions, ornamentation and patination. The 'H' shaped top with a large centered inlaid Maltese Cross and a border of stringing. The breakfront fitted with three drawers each with stringing and inlaid six point stars centrally positioned behind the wooden knobs. The uprights with two continuous vertical bands of stringing ebonised and fruitwood from the top to the bottom of the drawers in walnut to match the front of the chest and then reverting to ebonising and fruitwood down the feet. Terminating in tapering feet. The panelled sides with a repeat of the double banding on the uprights and rectangular borders within the panels. The oak lined drawers with the original 18th century blue paper lining. Measures: length 27 cm 10 1/2", height 24 cm 9 1/2", depth 20 cm 8". Maltese Cross: The Maltese cross is a symbol that is most commonly associated with the Knights of Malta (also known as the Knights Hospitallers...

19th Century Inlaid Demilune Satinwood Commode
Located in Lymington, GB
An English semi-elliptical, or demilune (half moon), inlaid satinwood commode of neoclassical form. Of very good rich color and patination. The marquetry in kingwood, tulipwood, burr veneers and harewood. The fine quality top inlaid with a large conch shell, with radiating trailing marquetry of bell-flower ribands, within a Vitruvian scroll border. This inlaid commode (or chest) contains three hinged cupboard doors each centred by oval panels inlaid with two-handled classical urns with drapery and flambeaux, on plinths set with burr veneers. The central cupboard revealing a bank of three oak-lined fitted drawers. The flanking cupboards with shelves. Raised on short square tapering legs and spade feet. 19th century, with 18th-century elements. All in excellent condition and of superb quality. Satinwood and marquetry commodes of this design reflect some of the highest achievements in English cabinet-making. Sometimes these antique commodes reveal the hand of two different master cabinet-makers, with tops differing from the bases. References: For a comparison see A. Hepplewhite and Co., Cabinet Maker, 'The Cabinet - Maker and Upholsterer's Guide' (1788) plate 78: ''Design for a Commode, enriched with painted or inlaid work adapted for a drawing room, within are shelves which answer the use of a closet or cupboard - may have one principal door in the front, or one at each end; are made of various shapes; and being used in principal rooms, require considerable elegance. The panels may be of satin wood, plain or inlaid; the top, and also the border round the front, should be inlaid.'' A fine George III satinwood and marquetry demilune commode attributed to Thomas Chippendale sold for £134,500 in Bonhams 'Fine English Furniture & Works of Art Sale', 19 Nov 2014. A related pair of satinwood commodes are in the Royal collection, made in 1781 for George IV when he was Prince of Wales. XQC 1988, 95, & XQC 2004, GIII, 284. See also Robert Adam, and Ince & Mayhew designs for similar satinwood marquetry commodes of the late 18th century. Vis. John Fowler...
