This piece of furniture, combining the refinement of a hairdresser and the storage capacity of an elegant dresser dresser, is made up of a movement drawer, then three large identical drawers. Each facade has a veneer of mahogany bramble assembled in an open book, highlighting the vein and the deep colors of this rare wood essence. On each drawer, we find a carved wooden entrance and an original lock accompanied by its adjusted key.
On each side, this dresser has slightly rounded and smashing uprights.
In the lower part, a protruding plinth, molded and accompanied by a throat and a square, rests on two feet shot in part.
The top of this chest of drawers has a solid mahogany frame with a tab cut. The perimeter is accompanied by an elongated half-round molding. In the center and in reserve, we find a white marble veined with gray. Finally, on each side and at the back, rests on top a wood strip ending with a molding.
The large psyche consists of an oval mirror, the perimeter in solid mahogany is slightly rounded and the original mercury ice cream.
On each side, two elements cut in shape, the bottom of which consists of a large volute in the lower part which appears upwards in swan neck. Each with a bronze candle wall lamp.
The mirror is articulated in the vertical direction and blocks thanks to brass elements screwing on each side.
Finally, the interior of this psyche dresser, restored by our workshop in the rules of the art, has drawers whose sides and funds are in oak.

Its finesse of execution and its shades of intense colors, will delight connoisseurs in search of unique and charismatic furniture.
