About the Item

A showstopping antique French Empire-style chest of drawers with a rich, storied past — and ready for its next chapter in a thoughtfully styled home. Dating to the mid-1800s, this dramatic five-drawer dresser features stunning bookmatched mahogany veneer, beautifully aged gilt bronze pulls, and a solid black fossil marble top. Its refined silhouette, bun feet, and classic proportions make it equally suited for a bedroom, hallway, or entry — or anywhere you want to ground your space with European elegance. Originally used in a 19th-century French home for linen and garment storage, this piece is still wonderfully functional today. The deep drawers offer generous storage for modern clutter (or collections), and it makes a handsome statement beneath a mirror or art. Dimensions: Size: 50” wide x 22” deep x 36” tall Shipping: Ships nationwide by private delivery transport and full insurance. Local pickup available in Virginia Beach, VA.
