About the Item
A gorgeous 19th century French mahogany chest of drawers–seven drawers to be exact, one for each day of the week-a classic Louis Philippe semainier with spellbinding patterns in the matched wood grain. The top surface is chamfered at the corners and the crown is wrapped with narrow pieces of the expressive veneer to begin the “waterfall” effect that leads the eye from one drawer to the next. The seven drawers feature stunning bookmatched fronts of radiating grain patterns that feel cohesive and expansive; they also share a key between the lower six drawers to secure the functioning locks. The top drawer is unique for using one key exclusively. Cleaned and polished with a French paste wax to maintain the historic character of this antique storage piece. Please view the detailed images to see more, as there are splits in the grain and areas of patina. Two keys included.
