AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Marqueted wood nightstand with brass gallery and gilded bronze ornaments.

This Louis XV‑style nightstand dates from the late 19th century, a period when furniture inspired by French design was highly sought after in European bourgeois interiors. Its curved form, marquetry, and gilded bronze ornaments are characteristic of French Rococo style, although this piece is likely a reinterpretation from the Napoleon III era or later.

This type of elegant accent piece was particularly appreciated for its practical function and refined aesthetics. Collectors and enthusiasts of French-style furniture seek these pieces for their ability to bring a touch of classic elegance into a contemporary interior. Antiques dealers and designers especially value the quality of the cabinetry, the inlays, and the ornaments in gilded bronze that attest to remarkable artisanal craftsmanship.
