Late 19th century French Charles X blonde oak commode with silver inlay. A late‑19th‑century French Charles X commode in blonde oak with silver inlay is a rare and exceptionally elegant variation on the Charles X aesthetic. While most Charles X pieces were produced in the 1820–1830 period and often used maple, mahogany, or fruitwood with light veneers and fine marquetry, the late‑19th‑century revival brought new interpretations — including the use of blonde oak and silver‑colored inlay that gave the style a more modern, luminous feel. Circa 1890. 53w x 23.5d x 39.5h
