This French Louis XV Revival bedside chest originates from 1920. Constructed from walnut and kingwood, the piece displays a warm brown palette with contrasting inlaid floral marquetry across the two drawers and a mottled reddish-brown marble top. Decorative dark metal mounts accent the upper corners, complemented by shaped metal drop handles on each drawer front, while the structure rests on slender cabriole legs. The table stands 75 cm high, 41 cm wide, and 32 cm deep. Suitable for domestic interiors, the chest functions as a bedside table or as a small accent piece positioned at the end of a sofa in a living room.

FAQs

Originating in nineteenth-century France, the Louis XV Revival style emulates eighteenth-century Rococo design, characterised by asymmetrical curves, slender cabriole legs, floral marquetry, and polished marble tops.

These chests typically feature a hardwood frame veneered with woods such as walnut, kingwood, or rosewood to create floral patterns, topped with a shaped marble slab and fitted with cast brass or bronze mounts.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-cut marquetry veneers, cast metal corner mounts and drawer handles, dovetail joinery on drawers, and a fitted marble surface cut to match the serpentine contours of the cabinet.

Place the piece alongside a upholstered bedstead or as an accent table beside a sofa, pairing its intricate wood tones and marble top with contemporary lighting and neutral wall shades.

Dust the wood veneer regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply natural beeswax sparingly; clean the marble top with a pH-neutral cleaner to protect it against acid etching and moisture damage.
