This Item Is Is Sold

An 18th century French commode with an unusually colored and quite beautiful marble top. This antique chest from France has a rectangular-shaped marble top, over the wooden case which houses three full-sized, graduated doors. Drawers are flanked with rounded front side posts, and adorn with fabulous ornate pulls and matching escutcheons set at center. The marble top has rounded front corners and a waterfall cut edge. The unusual coloring and veining of the marble, encompasses various shades of blues, greens, yam, and warm earth tones, is quite stunning. The chest is primarily a green/gray color with subtle blue undertones showing through from beneath-primarily about the sides, all with a wonderful patina and show of age. The chest is presented on block style feet. This 18th century French chest would work beautifully in a bedroom, living room, or entry hall, perhaps adorned with a few decorative objects and one of our lovely mirrors hanging above.
