FAQs

The Louis XV style is characterised by asymmetrical curved lines, serpentine fronts, cabriole legs, and elaborate naturalistic carvings such as florals and scrollwork.

Traditional commodes were constructed from solid hardwoods like oak, walnut, or beech, often veneered with exotic woods and fitted with bronze or brass hardware.

Authenticity is identified through traditional joinery techniques such as hand-cut dovetails, manual tool marks, aged patination on timber and metal, and historic hand-mixed paint finishes.

A painted commode works effectively as a statement piece in a neutral room, paired with contemporary minimalist art or balanced against architectural elements to create a curated contrast.

Preservation requires keeping the piece away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent paint cracking and timber warping, cleaning only with a dry, soft lint-free cloth.
