Louis XVI Neoclassical Ivory & Gold Leaf Two-Drawer Commode with Marble Top

Design Inspiration

Rooted in the refined elegance of Louis XVI Neoclassicism, this exquisite commode draws from the grandeur of 18th-century French royal interiors. The façade is adorned with cascading laurel wreath garlands, ribbon-tied oval medallions, and acanthus leaf carvings — hallmark motifs of the Neoclassical era — bringing timeless palatial beauty into the modern home.

Materials

Constructed from premium solid wood, the piece features a genuine marble top with delicate natural veining. The carved ornamental appliqués are finished in lustrous gold leaf, set against a hand-applied ivory lacquer ground. Warm amber cabochon jewel accents are embedded within the gilded wreaths, adding depth and opulence.

Craftsmanship

Every detail of this commode is handcrafted by Brass & Wood's master artisans in Egypt. The deep-relief carvings are individually sculpted and hand-gilded, while the tapered fluted legs — crowned with gold leaf acanthus capitals — reflect the precision and devotion invested in each bespoke piece. Two smooth-gliding drawers complete the functional elegance of this heirloom-quality creation.
