FAQs

The commode originated in France during the late 17th century, evolving from a low chest or cabinet into a sophisticated piece of furniture featuring drawers, commonly used in bedrooms and living spaces for storage.

Traditional construction typically involves a carcase of native timbers such as oak or pine, veneered with exotic woods like walnut, kingwood, or mahogany, and detailed with marquetry, gilt bronze or brass mounts, and a marble slab top.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the dovetail joints, wood ageing, hand-cut screws or handmade nails, the quality of the hand-cut marquetry, and the natural oxidisation and wear patterns on the interior drawer linings and mounts.

This piece can serve as a striking focal point in a hallway or bedroom, styled with a minimalist mirror or a simple ceramic lamp to balance the ornate woodworking and marble surface.

Maintain the piece by dusting regularly with a soft, dry cloth, avoiding direct sunlight and extreme humidity fluctuations, and treating the wood periodically with traditional beeswax while protecting the marble from acid stains.
