19th Century Neoclassical Inlaid Walnut and Cherry Italian Commode
-
Description
A refined neoclassical chest of drawers in walnut and cherry, distinguished by its rich inlay work and balanced proportions. The façade features two wide drawers, each threaded and framed with delicate bands of maple, mahogany, cherry, and walnut, creating a subtle play of warm light and darker tonal depth across the surface. The linear simplicity of the form is softened by the natural movement of the wood grain, which lends quiet elegance rather than ornament for ornament’s sake. The commode rests on four tapered legs in the classic reverse-pyramid form, each gently choked near the base, giving the piece lift and poise. The hardware is understated and original in character, complementing the refined, architectural silhouette. A timeless example of neoclassical craftsmanship, this commode blends easily into both traditional and contemporary interiors—elegant enough to stand alone, yet calm enough to harmonize with the room around it.
This is an antique and having been around for a long time, it will show signs of wear. Antique pieces have very much sought-after character and associated flaws. Please review photos for condition & contact us with questions! -
