Description:
Description: Antique Neapolitan Louis XIV chest of drawers in walnut burl with bois de rose reserves.
The surface, entirely in walnut burl, plays on the arrangement of the grains and the contrast of light and shadows of the various inlays.
The decoration is typical of 18th-century Naples with the classic contrasting reserve and the shield on the lock.
The two corners and the top are highlighted by elegant borders in wood arranged 'end-on'.
The front, with three drawers, is accentuated by a beautiful movement that is also repeated on the sides, with the wedge-shaped shoulders typical of Neapolitan cabinetmakers of the period.
The two cabriolet legs are covered with bronze socks and are connected by a mixtilinear apron.
