Description

Very decorative and super quality 19th century French mahogany and brass mounted commode with its original shaped marble top, circa 1860 and in great condition.

Wonderful colour to the mahogany which contrasts so well with the brass mounts and inlays to the front and the panelled sides, the shaped charcoal grey and white marble top to finish.

Particularly like the proportions of this chest of drawers, being a touch longer than the usual and also standing on these fine turned legs certainly gives this commode some elegance too.

Three full width drawers offering practical storage, but certainly not compromising on style!

Measuring:

31 1/2 inches or 80 cm high

49 inches or 124.5 cm wide

20 1/2 inches or 52 cm deep

Dealers Notes

I can arrange delivery to you, whether you are within the UK or require an international delivery service, please do get in touch…as a mainland UK guide, a delivery for something around the size of a chest of drawers within approx 150 miles will be £75 to you, but if you if you are in Scotland, Wales, Ireland or Cornwall please get in touch to confirm delivery costs!

Based in Uppingham, Rutland…having been in the business for 25 years focusing on mostly French and English decorative antiques and interiors from the 18th to the early 20th century, hopefully a collection you will enjoy browsing and hopefully re home some of my finds!

Viewing here in Uppingham is very welcome in my spacious barn studio but also I have a showroom based within the Uppingham Antiques Centre, which is well worth a visit and have a good lunch in town too!

Any queries about anything you have seen or about delivery, don't hesitate to get in touch.

FAQs

A commode is a low chest of drawers that emerged in France during the late 17th century, evolving from a simple low cabinet into a sophisticated focal point for drawing rooms and bedchambers.

Traditional commodes are constructed using solid timber frames and veneers like mahogany or walnut over secondary woods, often topped with imported marble slabs and joined using hand-cut dovetails.

Authentication involves examining the hand-cut dovetail joints, the natural ageing and weight of the marble top, hand-chased cast brass or bronze mounts, and traditional hand-planed secondary timbers.

This piece works effectively as a statement anchor against a neutral wall, balanced with minimalist modern artwork or lighting above to create a sophisticated contrast between old and new.

Protect the marble from acidic spills by using coasters, maintain stable indoor humidity to prevent wood splitting, and clean wooden surfaces using a soft cloth with traditional beeswax.
