Southern Germany
Walnut, plum
circa 1760
Dimensions: H x W x D: 81 x 109 x 60 cm
Description:
Three-drawer chest of drawers standing on pinch feet with a curved and creased front.
The drawers are divided into three sections each by the tails and also by the strictly geometric plumwood marquetry, which is accompanied by maple threads.
Neatly cast bronze fittings with the typical C-sweeps, rocailles and acanthus foliage complete the front view of the furniture.
The sides of the chest of drawers are also characterised by inlay work, here in a simpler version.
The top panel is interesting with its perfectly symmetrical walnut veneer. The front edge of the top, like the skirting board, is made from end grain pieces laid end-to-end, typical of the period and region. The shape of the edge follows the course of the furniture front.
The inside of the drawers are lined with a later, carefully applied Toile de Jouy fabric with rural genre scenes.
There is a key for the three solid iron box locks.
Condition:
Refurbished and suitable for everyday use.
Price: 4900,-€
