French Commode With Three Drawers, Signed P. Pioniez, Late 18th Century

Three-drawer French commode (the top drawer being slightly smaller), made in the second half of the 18th century and signed under the marble top by P. Pioniez, a Parisian cabinetmaker who became a master in 1765 and died in 1790. This piece is notable for its marquetry with floral and musical motifs, as well as for the finely chiseled gilt bronze mounts typical of Parisian furniture from the Ancien Régime.
