Neoclassical Style Marble and Ormolu-Mounted Wood Commode After Leleu
About the Item
This fine, delicately ornamented commode was built by French designers Myrtil Dennery and Paul Alexandre who were active in the early 20th century, after the 18th Century model by celebrated French cabinetmaker Jean-Francois Leleu (French, 1729-1807). The commode is of rectangular shape with a slightly curved front, and sits on four cylindrical feet which are capped with ormolu. The body of the commode comprises three drawers. The lower two drawers are distinguished by subtle parquetry panels and are bordered with ormolu with circular ormolu handles. The upper drawer is the shallowest, and concealed by a frieze panel that is decorated with delicate, scrolling flowers in ormolu. To each end of the commode there are panels of parquetry bordered in ormolu to the lower section and further friezes of scrolling flowers to the upper section. The top of the commode is formed from veined, white marble.
The back of one of the drawer locks is stamped 'Duvivier/Paris/71 Fg St Antoine,' stencilled 'Fabrique de meubles / Myrtil Dennery & P. Alexandre / Paul Alexandre Succr./64 Faubourg St Antoine, 64 Paris (...)'.

Very fine Louis XVI style ormolu-mounted marquetry commode

Located in Miami, FL
A very fine quality Louis XVI Style ormolu-mounted commode or chest of drawers with an Italian white marble top that is truly breathtaking! Intricate inlaid marquetry design throughout, the front and sides of the piece as well. Remarkable attention to detail in the brass mounts and other hardware!
This beautiful Louis XVI style ormolu-mounted commode inlaid with marquetry and parquetry of rosewood, satinwood, possibly amaranth and painted wood inlays, some similarities to the model by Jean-Henri Riesener, Circa 1880. The breakfront white marble top above a conforming moulded cornice and a pair of large deep drawers inlaid with a central foliate, flanked by lattice and patera-decorated panels, the sides with similar panels, the angles with acanthus-cast volutes, on scrolled acanthus feet. The white marble top with striations and veins coming through.
Generously sized, the two spacious drawers are perfect for storing your belongings.

Embodied with a sense of luxury and glamour, this Louis XVI Style commode or chest of drawers can be paired with a variety of other styles you may already have in your home or place of choosing!
Truly a show stopper and will certainly be a conversation starter at your next gathering! Would look wonderful with modern artwork hanging above and
an 18th or 19th Century Mantel Clock (choose from our collection) on top of the white marble to further accentuate this beautiful piece of functional furniture.
Very good condition with minor surface scratches and small blemishes, but no significant imperfections. Age appropriate wear.
