About the Item
An exceptional French Louis XV-XVI Transition dresser featuring a total of five drawers. The upper section includes three smaller drawers adorned with finely detailed vine motifs, while the two large lower drawers display elegant sans travers marquetry with exquisite Baroque-style floral vases and vessels.
This refined 18th-century commode rests on graceful cabriole legs and retains its original gilt-bronze fittings. The fitted original marble top, in a deep maroon tone, adds a rich contrast to the warm wood veneer. Expertly refinished, the piece is in beautiful condition—an outstanding example of late Louis XV craftsmanship blending into early Neoclassicism.

View AllLouis XV Chest of Drawers, France, 1770
Located in Belmont, MA
This gorgeous French Louis XV chest of drawers dates back to around 1770. It was made during the so called Transition period, the time between Louis XV and Louis XVI. It already shows the plain and stricter design of the Louis XVI period, but has still some playful marquetry decor details which draw from the more pompous Louis XV style. The three drawers commode stands on four cabriole legs with bronze sabots. Between the first and the second drawer is a decorated bronze band. This beautiful chest of drawers has its original wooden top with its veneer decor matching the decor of the front and sides.
The Transition commode has been expertly refinished in our workshop.
The price includes costs for the exquisite restoration and the international shipping from Europe...
