This striking French commode dates from the Louis Philippe period (1830-1848). It features beautifully book-matched walnut veneer (which happens to remind us of wine glasses!), and an original Sainte Anne marble top. There's a large drawer concealed in the cornice (just below the marble top). Below, three additional drawers with hand-dovetailed joinery, offer plenty of storage. The commode rests on bracket feet, and includes period authentic minimal brass keyhole covers. An original skeleton key is included with the commode, and can be used to lock the drawers. This French commode would be a statement-making piece in an entryway, and would be equally elegant in a dining room as a buffet or sideboard, with ample drawer space for storing dishes.
