FAQs

The Louis XVI style emerged in France during the late eighteenth century, characteristically rejecting Rococo curves in favour of Neoclassical geometry, straight lines, symmetrical parquetry, and tapered fluted legs.

These commodes typically feature solid oak or pine carcases veneered with fine woods such as walnut, kingwood, or rosewood, topped with natural polished marble slabs and fitted with cast brass or bronze mounts.

Authentic period pieces display hand-sawn timber elements, hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, hand-chased bronze or brass mountings, and unpolished or rough-hewn undersides on the marble top.

Position the piece in a hallway, entryway, or bedroom, pairing its structured wood and marble surfaces with contemporary framed artwork above and minimalist ceramic accessories on top to create a balanced contrast.

Dust the wood veneer regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth and apply beeswax sparingly twice a year. Clean the marble surface using only pH-neutral cleaners, avoiding acidic substances that can etch stone.
