FAQs

A Louis XV style commode is characterised by serpentine drawer fronts, cabriole legs, delicate relief carvings, and decorative metal escutcheons, originating in 18th-century France.

Traditional French commodes are constructed from solid hardwoods such as oak, beech, or walnut, featuring hand-cut dovetail joints and painted or lacquered distressed finishes with cast brass hardware.

Authenticity is indicated by hand-planed timber back panels, original dovetail drawer construction, natural wear patterns on painted surfaces, and cast brass hardware exhibiting aged patination.

A painted French commode acts as an anchor piece in a bedroom or hallway, creating contrast when paired with contemporary artwork, minimalist lighting, and neutral linen textiles.

Dust the surface regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply neutral wax sparingly to unpainted structural timber, avoiding harsh chemicals that strip original paint finish.
