Half-moon chest of drawers, in rosewood marquetry in amaranth frames underlined by light wood fillets. The slightly raised, simulated fluted uprights rest on tapered legs adorned with rings and hooves.

It opens with 3 drawers on the front; the bottom drawers without crosspiece are topped by a narrower drawer. Two side doors open onto two shelves on either side.

It is topped with gray marble from the Sainte Anne quarries, with grooves and protrusions that follow the lines of the chest.

Parisian work from the last quarter of the 18th century (between 1777 and 1788), stamped by Fidelys SCHEY, under the bottom rail of the right-hand door.

Length: 131 cm.
Depth: 56 cm.
Height: 88 cm.

Fidelys Schey was awarded the title of Master on February 5, 1777. Born in the Duchy of Baden, this prolific cabinetmaker, despite the relative brevity of his career (he died on July 28, 1788), established himself on rue de Faubourg Saint-Antoine and opened a sales store next to his workshop, which he entrusted to his wife. His production included Transition and, above all, Louis XVI furniture. In 1786, he supplied gaming tables for the Château de Fontainebleau.
