Description from the seller

Burl veneer chest of drawers, Venetian-Venetian area, 18th century

A refined 18th-century burl-veneered chest of drawers, attributed to the Veneto–Venetian production. The sculpted form, with a slightly bulging front and shaped sides, reflects the elegant and restrained taste of lagoon-area furniture of the period. The piece features four drawers with a carefully selected burl veneer in a warm and vibrant grain, arranged with great artisanal skill.

The balance between formal sobriety and the refinement of the materials makes this chest a significant example of 18th-century Venetian production, ideal for collectors and environments that demand a piece with classic taste and high quality.
