The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Originating in France during the mid-19th century, Louis Philippe commodes are characterised by clean, minimalist lines, rounded ogee top drawers, heavy plinth bases, and polished marble tops.

These commodes were typically constructed with solid oak or pine carcasses finished in fine flame mahogany, walnut, or rosewood veneers, crowned with thick grey or white veined marble tops and fitted with gilded brass or bronze escutcheons.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-cut dovetail joints, thick sliced timber veneers, hand-chiseled marble undersides, original steel lock mechanisms, and structural timber showing natural age-related shrinkage.

A marble-topped commode works exceptional well as a focal statement in an entryway, living room, or bedroom, paired with contemporary artwork above and modern ceramic vessels on the stone top to bridge period styles.

Dust timber surfaces regularly with a soft dry cloth and polish with beeswax along the grain, while cleaning the marble surface using only pH-neutral stone cleaners to prevent etching or staining.
