Description

Really super quality French Empire period marble top commode with gilded lions paw feet and brass capitols to the pillars.

Wonderful rich colour tone throughout the mahogany and all the original brasses have polished up well too. Particularly nice details to the brass capitols and the lions mask drop handles too.

The marble top is the original and has lovely charcoal and earthy tones, some “nibbles” to the corners but all very minor.

Very decorative piece and with three full width drawers for storage. All drawers running well and with their original locks, although I don’t have any working keys.

Measuring:

34 1/2 inches or 87.5 cm high

47 3/4 inches or 121.5 cm wide

23 3/4 inches or 60.5 cm deep
