FAQs

The commode originated in France during the late 17th century, evolving from a low cabinet or chest into a sophisticated piece of furniture used primarily for storage in elite residential interiors.

Traditional pieces are typically constructed using solid hardwoods like oak, walnut, or fruitwood, featuring mortise and tenon joinery, hand-carved ornamentation, and fitted natural marble tops.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the hand-cut joinery, the natural ageing and oxidisation of the timber, the type of hardware used, and the irregular veining and hand-finishing of the marble top.

Pairing a traditional carved wooden cabinet with minimalist surroundings, modern lighting, or abstract art creates a balanced aesthetic that highlights the texture and history of the piece.

Maintain the timber by dusting regularly and applying beeswax periodically, while cleaning the marble top with a neutral, non-acidic soap solution to prevent etching and staining.
