French Louis Philippe Carved Walnut Marble Top Commode, 19th c., the figured corner reeded edge gray marble over a cavetto frieze drawer and three deep drawers, on a plinth base on stepped block feet, H.- 39 in., W.- 50 1/2 in., D.- 23 in.

The hardware appears to be original, because there are no wear patterns from different drawer pull shapes. The marble top could be a later addition because it hangs about two inches over the back and both sides. There are two small areas of veneer loss right below the bottom drawer. Similarly there are four approx. 1 inch areas of veneer loss to the band below the 2nd from bottom dawer. After other small scattered chips to veneer present. Some evidence of old wood worm damage throughout. Wear is consistent with age and use. ________________________________________________________________________________ ALL PROPERTY IS SOLD "AS IS."
