A magnificent Swedish Gustavian-style chest of drawers that perfectly combines neoclassical symmetry with refined elegance.
This 20th-century piece is in impeccable condition, as if displayed in a showroom, making it a rare find for collectors and interior design enthusiasts.
Design and Craftsmanship:
The chest features exceptional marquetry work. The front is centered with a classic oval medallion depicting a draped figure, framed by intricate geometric motifs and fine filigree. The sides display a vibrant matched grain in warm tones of kingwood and rosewood.
Materials:
• Stone: The piece is crowned with its original, thick marble top (Plum/Violetta Breccia). The marble is flawless, with no cracks or scratches.
• Bronze: Adorned with high-quality gilded bronze mounts (ormolu), including a decorative laurel leaf frieze along the upper drawer and elegant neoclassical hardware.
• Drawers: Two deep “sans traverse” drawers, allowing the marquetry design to continue uninterrupted across the front.
Condition:
Like new. This item has been exceptionally well maintained. The wood finish shines, the structure is solid, and the marble top is perfect. It is ready to be placed immediately in a high-end interior.
