About the Item

A showstopping antique French Empire-style chest of drawers with a rich, storied past — and ready for its next chapter in a thoughtfully styled home. Dating to the mid-1800s, this dramatic five-drawer dresser features stunning bookmatched mahogany veneer, beautifully aged gilt bronze pulls, and a solid black fossil marble top. Its refined silhouette, bun feet, and classic proportions make it equally suited for a bedroom, hallway, or entry — or anywhere you want to ground your space with European elegance. Originally used in a 19th-century French home for linen and garment storage, this piece is still wonderfully functional today. The deep drawers offer generous storage for modern clutter (or collections), and it makes a handsome statement beneath a mirror or art. Dimensions: Size: 50” wide x 22” deep x 36” tall Shipping: Ships nationwide by private delivery transport and full insurance. Local pickup available in Virginia Beach, VA.

Vintage Triple Oval Ornate Gold Wall Mirror Hollywood Regency
Located in Portsmouth, VA
This dramatic triple-oval mirror is more than a reflection — it’s a statement. With ornate scrollwork, sweeping curves, and rich golden tones, it evokes the timeless glamour of a Parisian dressing room or a grand European salon. Measuring 66 inches wide, the scale alone makes an unforgettable impression. Intricately molded acanthus leaves and interlocking oval frames create a sculptural silhouette that dances with light and shadow — elevating everything around it. Though crafted from a lightweight molded resin composite to mimic the look of hand-carved wood, the mirror offers the visual weight of an antique gilded piece — without the fragility of plaster or the heaviness of solid wood. The finish is a warm antique gold that adds depth and glow to any space. Attributed to Bassett Furniture and dating to the 1960s, this mirror is unmarked but aligns closely with other known examples from the era. It was previously styled in an upscale East Coast estate powder room, where it served as the centerpiece above a custom vanity...
