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

A French walnut commode is a substantial chest of drawers introduced during the 17th century, designed to serve as both decorative display and practical storage in prominent rooms.

These chests are typically crafted from dense hard woods like walnut or oak, featuring dovetail drawer joints, hand-carved mouldings, and cast brass or bronze escutcheons and handles.

Key identifiers include a serpentine or bombee contoured facade, short cabriole legs, asymmetrical rococo carving details, and decorative apron mouldings.

Place the commode against a neutral backdrop to highlight the grain, pairing it with contemporary artwork above and minimalistic brass or ceramic decorative objects on the surface.

Regularly wipe the surface with a dry microfibre cloth, apply a high-grade beeswax polish periodically along the wood grain, and keep the piece away from direct heat sources to prevent timber movement.
