Somno In Cherry Veneer, Empire Taste - Early Nineteenth

Rare Somno in cherrywood veneer and solid cherrywood, topped with a black marble top slightly veined with white. This cylindrical Empire style bedside table is of remarkable design for the quality of its wood. The beauty of cherry wood and its luminous veining is perfectly highlighted by this stylish little piece of furniture. It has a vertical cherry veneer base and a solid cherry bevelled overhang. Set back, a large cylinder is two-thirds of a curved door with a single element in the heart of cherry wood without joints. This door has 2 brass hinges on the right side and a handle representing a hand, accompanied by its clasp. Inside, we find two cherry wood shelves. In the upper part, this somno has a headband in cherry wood veneer surmounted by a beveled part allowing to accommodate the black marble which overhangs it. Note that the construction of the base of this cylindrical piece of furniture is made of solid wood strips a few centimeters wide glued together. This cherry somno is unusual because this type of piece was most often made of burl mahogany. Elegant and refined, this unique somno will charm you with its shimmering color and soft shapes.
