19th C. French Louis XVI Style Dore Bronze Mounted Mirrored Malachite Dresser

About the Item

An Incredible and Spectacular 19th Century French Louis XVI Style Dore Bronze Mounted Mirrored Malachite Dresser with Candelabra arms. The malachite body of the dresser is hand crafted from a semi-precious stone, highly sought after for its unique beauty and rarity. This earthy green stone with its irregular black banding was often used to adorn the finest pieces of furniture and jewelry. This magnificent dresser is a gorgeous mottled malachite in a jade and turquoise color with golden doré bronze accents on the feet and drawer pulls, which adds to its beauty and elegance. The oval mirror is surrounded by a doré bronze frame with a botanical design that is sure to catch the eye of anyone who gazes upon it. The candelabras on either side of the mirror are crafted in the shape of twisting branches with golden leaves, holding three candles each, and made of doré bronze. The dresser also features a central drawer flanked by two square drawers with doré bronze ring pulls styled like wreaths. The beautiful green malachite extends to the back of the mirror which is an unexpected and delightful surprise. The lion feet crafted in doré bronze add a regal touch to the piece, making it a truly magnificent and impressive item. This dresser has wonderful hearts depicted in the malachite patterns. France, Circa: 1880
