About the Item

A solid walnut commode from France, 19th century, with all the signature elements of the Louis XVI style exhibiting curious patina to blend with interiors from rustic to more refined. The top surface is composed of multiple, honey-gold planks that have been carved to turreted corners, etched with the erratic lines of some wood-boring insect that has long since moved on. Making up the body of the piece are three spacious drawers that glide easily using brass ring pulls; note that keyhole escutcheons are only decorative without a key present. The drawer fronts exhibit the same tactile patina as the top surface and their interiors are of excellent proportion to offer generous storage for clothes, linens, and other household essentials. Fluting on the turreted corners flows into turned, tapering legs lifting the case from the floor. Cleaned, tightened, and polished with a French paste wax to preserve all the historic character–this antique commode is ready for your interior. We believe this item to be in good antique condition considering its age, and any visible signs of wear are captured in the photos. Please view the detailed image gallery for the current condition and message us with any questions. One ring pull is a modern replacement.
