Brescian Walnut Chest Of Drawers

Rare Italian Louis XV chest of drawers in walnut, walnut briar andcentrally moved fillets with high leg measuring 90 x 116 x 58cm.

This beautiful chest of drawers with 3 drawers moved centrally and slightly rounded on the sides rests on legs, curvedalmost like a “cabriole”, rather slender that are connected withthe apron with a wavy contour in a very elegant way on the forehead and sides.

In the three drawers the decoration is solely madeup of the noble Ferrara root and the fillets, as well as a move ofgreat refinement and value, with imposing head wood at both ends ofthe chest of drawers, a guarantee of elegant furniture and of greatvalue of materials and cabinetry.

Splendid example for therefined conception of the Brescia imprint and for the execution; the usual search for an approach to elegant Venetian forms leavesun changed the Lombard character of opulent creation with warm and colored walnut briar.

The character is also underlined by themarked tones of the handles and the absolutely original chiseled bronze hardware as well as by the chew proportions which are keptharmonious in the various curves of the sides and front.
As previously said, the motif of the column rounding of the two frontcorners is very fine.
