Louis XV-Style Mahogany and Rosewood Commode

early 20th century, in the manner of Paul Sormani, the rectangular top with a three-quarter pierced brass gallery and projecting canted corners with decorative circular string inlays, above a conforming case fitted with a frieze drawer opening to a leather-inset push-back writing surface over two long drawers with conforming string inlay, raised on cabriole legs ending in sabots, the whole accented with ormolu mounts.
h. 31", w. 25-1/2", d. 19"

In overall very good condition. The top exhibits some scattered light surface scratches, as does the edge of one front leg. Tight and sturdy. No movement noted in the legs. Lock and key are present. The key does not appear to be functional.
