An important and absolutely stunning antique French Louis XV marble top commode by Jacques Bircklé. This was made in France and dates from around the 1750-1770 period.
It is of magnificent quality with a beautiful design and generous proportions. There are stunning inlaid patterns of various woods and extremely high quality gilt bronze mounts all over. This has a curvaceous bombe shape with a serpentine front edge. The marble top is likely original, it is very thick and is a lovely speckled grey.
We have had this French polished to a very high standard, the condition is excellent. There is just some extremely minor wear here and there beneath the polish, consistent with age.
The makers stamp is seen on the top under the marble.
