Description from the seller
**French Commode in the Transition Style, Louis XV–Louis XVI – 20th Century**
**An elegant French commode in the Transition Style, Louis XV–Louis XVI, made in the 20th century and distinguished by its gracefully shaped form, embellished with rich ornamental marquetry. The gently bowed front features four drawers arranged in two rows, decorated with elaborate geometric and floral inlays in contrasting wood species, culminating in a refined central medallion with a Neoclassical feel.**
**The piece is topped with an elegant, shaped marble top in light tones, while the chased bronze mounts at the corners, on the handles and on the sabots enhance the composition with understated elegance. The slender, gently curved legs lend lightness to the structure, perfectly expressing the stylistic transition between the grace of Louis XV and the decorative restraint of Louis XVI.**
**A piece of notable craftsmanship and outstanding decorative merit, ideal for classical interiors, formal reception rooms or antique collections, where it can be admired for its rich inlays, the beauty of its wood species and the balance of its proportions.**
