The piece features an ivory-colored lacquer finish with a pleasantly weathered appearance, embellished with gilded moldings and reliefs that harmoniously follow the sinuous lines of the structure.

The front consists of two small upper drawers and two large drawers below, all decorated with delicate polychrome floral motifs in shades of pink, green, and yellow. The richly shaped burnished metal handles complete the look.

Particularly striking are the rounded sides, the gilded relief moldings, and the contoured lower apron, decorated in the center with a shell motif. The piece rests on elegant arched legs, typical of the Louis XV style.

The patina, the slight wear on the lacquer, and the signs of age all contribute to the piece’s decorative charm and its well-loved character.

A truly striking dresser, ideal for furnishing a bedroom, entryway, living room, or villa, and also perfect as a contrasting element in a contemporary setting.
