A small 19th-century Parisian commode tombau d'entre deux, topped with red Pyrenean marble molded in beak-of-corbine style.
This Louis XIV-style commode opens with four identical, pot-bellied drawers, whose fronts are in rosewood and violetwood marquetry.
The center features an oval violet-wood section with a butterfly-winged interior of rosewood and violet.
Each drawer is fitted with two bronze folding handles mounted on rosette axes, an original functional lock with chased escutcheon and a later key.
The intermediate crosspieces, as well as the top and bottom of this piece of furniture, are embellished with brass inlaid grooves.
The generously curved bottom rail also features a scroll and shell-decorated cul-de-lampe.
The quarter-round front legs are in rosewood and filleted. They end in openwork bronze sabots.
The slightly curved sides are in rosewood with a quatrefoil pattern. They feature an oval inlaid element.
The drawer bottoms and sides, as well as the back of the cabinet, are in oak.
This chest of drawers is very attractively sized, with high-quality ornamentation and marquetry.
