Small Mahogany Chest Of Drawers, Louis XV / Louis XVI Transition Style – Early 20th Century

This small mahogany chest of drawers embodies the elegance and refinement of the Louis XV Louis XVI Transition style. This piece of furniture stands out with its raised front and its mahogany veneer arranged in an open book. The front is highlighted by a marquetry net alternating light and dark wood, with Greek angles adding finesse to its design. Featuring two drawers with functional locks, this chest of drawers is adorned with chiseled bronze entrances, delicately topped with a Louis XVI knot, reminiscent of the characteristic ornaments of this period. The uprights, enhanced by ornate bronze falls in their upper part, further enhance its majestic appearance. Resting on elegantly arched bronze legs, it asserts its stature with a low, animated crosspiece, also adorned with bronze trim. Finally, its top is crowned with white Carrara marble with raised and grooved edges, bringing a touch of harmony to the whole. This piece of furniture, a true testament to craftsmanship, illustrates the transition between the Louis XV and Louis XVI styles, combining graceful curves and architectural rigor in perfect symbiosis.********Period: Early 20th centuryExcellent condition after restoration in our cabinetmaking workshopWaxed finish on hard baseDelivery on estimate in France and internationally.Dimensions:Width: 89 cmDepth: 46 cmHeight: 87 cmReference: 221V
