An exceptional piece, this remarkable Louis XV chest of drawers in thick marquetry with musical instrument motifs. A magnificent animated gray and white veined marble with Bec de Corbin headdress
this superb piece which has nothing to envy of Topino or Hache des Cotemporains. What personalizes it
it is the generosity of the subject where violin, mandolin, bagpipes score are put on show and on the sides beautiful flower vases give the answer; the choice of veneers such as lemon, ebony, walnut and mahogany offer us a beautiful setting, framed by Greeks (which announces the transition to come). The quality of the veneer assemblies, the choice of species, the deliberate and strong design give candor to this beautiful two-drawer chest of drawers, well-bellied and scalloped on the sides. The bronzes running the angle of the front base up to the shoes, the moving and airy handles and the entrance to the lock which was hidden in the 19th century, the deep drawers covered in bright red, the particular cutout of the bottom drawer, in fitting on the foot and the two drawers without crosspiece, everything contributes to this exceptional piece of furniture in good condition and within
