Description
This small Italian chest of drawers combines refined proportions with timeless elegance, making it a versatile accent piece. Dating from the late 18th to early 19th century, the chest features two drawers adorned with gilt-bronze escutcheons and original locks, highlighting the craftsmanship of its period. The façade displays a warm, rich patina, with beautifully figured walnut veneer panels framed by clean linear moldings.
