The top of the commode is made of a thick, hand-cut marble with ogee edges and rounded front corners.
Overall this is a beautiful piece that is elegant and timeless. The light color and the striations of the bleached mahogany give it a contemporary look, but the marble top gives it a very classical feel. The small size make it a perfect piece for a bedroom to be used as a dressing table. or in a small office.
