Description
An elegant italian Louis XVI bois de violette veneered and green-stained maple finely banded chest of drawers, Turin end of the 18th century
Details

The rigorously geometric structure is enhanced by a refined Greek key motif at the corners of the drawers and fluted tapering legs adorned with original gilt bronze mounts.

The white marble top underscores the restrained composition, while the corner knot inlay and choice of woods reflect the finest Turin cabinetry of the late 18th to early 19th century.

A piece of high patronage, understated yet sophisticated, coherent with the cultured milieu of Savoyard aristocratic residences.
