Description

A stunning antique French commode with inlaid marquetry and a marble top. This dates from around the 1880-1900 period.

It is of superb quality, it is predominantly burr walnut, with beautiful inlays of various woods and high quality gilt bronze mounts. The colour tones are lovely, this has two generous drawers and a beautiful pink marble top.

The condition is excellent for its age, we have just had it re-polished. On each side there appears to have been a split, which has been filled and polished over. I think it could have been movement in the join of the wood. It looks worse in the images than in real life.

Width – 29 inches , 73 cm

Depth – 16 inches , 41 cm

Height – 32 inches , 80 cm

A French commode is a low chest of drawers or cabinet developed during the 17th and 18th centuries, characterised by decorative wood veneers, elaborate brass mounts, and often a shaped marble top.

These pieces typically feature a carcase of native timbers such as oak or pine, overlaid with exotic veneer and marquetry patterns, set upon curved cabriole legs and finished with cast bronze or brass mounts.

Authenticity is determined by examining the joinery, such as hand-cut dovetails, the type of secondary woods used internally, natural oxidisation of the metalwork, and the wear patterns consistent with age.

Positioning the piece against a neutral wall allows the intricate wood grain and marquetry details to serve as a focal point, contrasting effectively with minimalist modern furnishings.

Maintain the finish by dusting with a dry microfibre cloth and applying occasional high-quality beeswax to the wood, whilst keeping marble clean using a damp cloth without acidic cleaners.
