Rare Somno in cherrywood veneer and solid cherrywood, topped with a black marble top slightly veined with white.
This cylindrical Empire style bedside table is of remarkable design for the quality of its wood.
The cherry wood is distinguished here from the mahogany used exclusively at the beginning of the 19th century for the realization of the somnos.
The beauty of cherry wood and its luminous veining is perfectly highlighted by this stylish little piece of furniture.
It has a vertical cherry veneer base and a solid cherry bevelled overhang. Set back, a large cylinder is two-thirds of a curved door with a single element in the heart of cherry wood without joints. This door has 2 brass hinges on the right side and a handle representing a hand, accompanied by its clasp.
Inside, we discover two cherry wood shelves.
In the upper part, this somno has a headband in cherry wood veneer surmounted by a beveled part to accommodate the black marble that overhangs it.
Note that the construction of the base of this cylindrical piece of furniture is made of solid wood strips a few centimeters wide glued together.
Elegant and refined, this unique somno will charm you with its shimmering color and soft shapes.
