About the Item
We present this elegant antique Italian chest of drawers dating back to the mid-18th century, Louis XV period. An extremely refined chest of drawers, whose characteristics suggest that it was made in the cabinet-making workshops of northern Italy, particularly in the Liguria region.
Made of solid fruit wood, a very particular wood: the carob tree. The carob tree (Ceratonia siliqua) is an evergreen fruit tree belonging to the legume family. Its fruits, the carobs, are flattened and elongated pods, dark brown in color, and have a sweet flavor. This wood was split and used in ancient times by Italian cabinet-makers, particularly in the Liguria region, for the production of high-quality furniture, highly appreciated for its hardness.
This chest of drawers is characterized by a light honey color that highlights the elegant geometric decoration inlaid in the wood that embellishes each side of the chest of drawers. The decoration is clearly classic in taste, personalizing the chest of drawers without weighing it down excessively. When purchasing chests of drawers of this value, it is necessary to consider the high quality of the cabinetmaking. Each small piece of inlay has been meticulously handcrafted using wood essences of different shades to obtain the refined decoration present!
Its wavy shape on the front and the slender feet perfectly reflect the taste of the historical era that wanted furniture that was not too linear but moved with extreme elegance and refinement. From a functional point of view, it is equipped with three comfortable drawers covered in paper. You can certainly consider placing this precious chest of drawers in any room of the house and enhance it by combining it with a beautiful painting or a beautiful mirror. Wherever you decide to place it, it will become a focal point admired and envied by all your guests.
