Elevate your home with this stunning Henredon French Provincial Bombe Chest, crafted with the exceptional quality and artistry that define Henredon’s legacy. This elegant 2-drawer commode features a beautifully carved Louis XV silhouette, gracefully curved bombe form, and richly detailed cabriole legs with crisp acanthus leaf carving.
The chest is topped with a substantial sculpted stone slab, adding both luxury and durability. The light natural finish reveals the beauty of the wood grain, offering a warm, neutral palette that complements traditional, French Country, coastal, or transitional interiors.
Henredon’s craftsmanship is evident throughout—solid wood construction, precision moldings, ornate cast brass hardware, and smooth-operating drawers shaped with serpentine interiors to follow the chest’s graceful curves.
An authentic Henredon label remains on the back.
1. The paper tag on the back is a real Henredon furniture label
The tag on this chest/nightstand matches true Henredon labeling used from the 1980s–early 2000s:
• Cream/tan color
• Black serif “Henredon” text
• Production number underneath
• UPC barcode
• Placed on the raw wood back panel, not a mattress foundation
• Slightly peeling (common due to age)
This is exactly how Henredon labeled many of their case goods.

✅ 2. The construction is 100% consistent with Henredon
Everything about the piece shows classic Henredon craftsmanship:
✔ French Provincial / Louis XV design
Henredon made a ton of high-end French-style bombe commodes and curved-leg case goods.
✔ Carved cabriole legs with crisp detailing
The acanthus leaf carving is deep and sharp — a hallmark of Henredon.
✔ Solid wood framing
You can see block reinforcement and hardwood rails on the backside.
✔ Thick veneered panels with molded drawer fronts
Henredon’s French Provincial collections had these exact raised, molded, serpentine drawer fronts.
✔ Real stone top
Henredon frequently used marble or manufactured stone slabs on pieces like this.
⸻
✅ 3. The stenciled factory number on the back matches Henredon format
The black stencil (looks like “18-3413” or similar) is exactly how Henredon marked production batches and case numbers.
