About the Item

Impressive 19th century 6-drawer dresser cabinet, finely crafted of carved mahogany solids, including large older period salvage framed medallion of perspective marquetry composed in a variety of wood inlay species, attributed to the Giovanni Maffezzoli school (circa 1810-1830), in the tradition of his mentor Giuseppe Maggiolini. Colored inlays form Roman spa pools amidst ancient aqueduct architecture and statuary of the garden retreat, with tranquil patrons. Baroque inspired garland complete with rosettes, scrolls & baccelature frames the medallion art. Likely commissioned for a noble family, the handcraft composition & detail is of the finest quality. Cabinet width-tapering concave side panels. Exquisite carvings border and define each panel & frame. Bronze & brass hardware. Beige colored Perlato Sicilia shaped marble inset. Mirror frame rests on top of the cabinet (removable). Old mercury glass with good reflectivity. The right side of the cabinet presents 3 visible drawers, while the left side drawers are partially obscured by the door-mounted medallion element. The centered & hinged door swings open from the right to reveal the full larger width of 3 left drawers, with flame mahogany grain fronts. Door lock & key (which secures the 3 left drawers behind the locked center door). Complete matching bedstead (bed frame including headboard, footboard, side rails - Cal King size adapted, and oval marquetry medallion) as well as night stand pair are available.
