Exceptional And Rare Pair Of Commodes Called "perruquières" In Violet Wood - Regency Period

Exceptional and rare pair of chests of drawers known as "wigmakers" - Regency Period - early 18th century
Pair of chests of drawers known as "wigs" curved in shape in violet wood veneer with "butterfly" motifs. 
The veneer was carried out on softwood and oak backgrounds.
Considering the thickness of the violet wood, we can say that these wigs have never been restored to this day.

They open with a drawer and have a heavily cut waistband.
These chests of drawers are based on curved legs, all dressed in bronze

Very beautiful and rich ornamentation of finely chiseled bronzes, gilded with fine mercury gold, such as: keyholes, pull handles, chutes with rockery patterns, palmettes in butt and clogs.
The floors are covered with Belgian breccia marble with bec de corbin. (Slightly different marble veins)
Period locks have been revised. The keys, functional, have been redone.
